I really don't think the 120 is that bad of an engine power wise. I had one in my old Islander and have one in my glasser. No, they are not the fastest but will certainly push the boat in the 30's and cruise nicely in the high 20's. My glass is 19' and way heavier than my my Islander was and sits deeper in the water but it still pushes her along well. The thing I like most is the fuel economy they get. Pretty much a bulletproof engine.
I really like the 120, but in the type of hull on that 20 it takes a lot of power to keep that sharp bow up out of the water, they seem to work very well in the regular SS, Holiday or Chieftain hull.
