I have a quick queston for the outboard motor experts on this forum.
The transom on my pontoon boat says Maximum HP is 90 but manual states it can hold up to a 300 pound engine.
If I were to put a 125 HP engine on the transom, but the weight of the motor is only 300 pounds would that be ok?
The boat is a two toon and 24 feet in length by 8 feet in width. The current engine is a Force 50 and it weighs right at 150 pounds. The Force 125 I would like to put on it is 300 pounds.
Thoughts?
