Re: 55 johnson
The 3 cylinder 55's seem to be good strong motors as a rule. I have no idea about your model. How it was cared for in the past is just as important a question to ask, though.<br />Mine does a very nice job with my 15'11" fiberglass Silver Line which is not exactly light. Depends on how heavy your boat and typical loads are. I'm not in any great hurry on the water though and appreciate how easy it is on gas compared to the bigger motors. Mine will pull a skier just fine even with all the seats filled. Hope that is what you're hoping to hear.
