Searider 4.7m and a 75hp Yam 2stroke
I have the above boat and need an engine, I realise this is 5hp above the recommended power, but its still 10kg below the maximum weight.

Anybody had a 75hp 2 stroke on a SR4.7m?

Also what are peoples thoughts on this set up?

I am hoping some of the Searider experts can help me out here.

Craig

I've had 5 x SR4.7's (still got 2 here) and one had a 75 on it and for the extra weight of a yam 75 it's not worth it. Look for a yam 70 2 stroke

The picture seems to indicate that one is a 60hp?
