Scout 180 Bay - 90 hp vs. 115hp yamaha 4 stroke

[cduke]

For a little more money, I can get the 115. What does the extra horsepower get me and is it worth the money on this 1,000 pound bay?

What you might get is a better rpm at crusin speed if you are proped right. That might be worth it!

I agree or at least get one close to it. I have a 115 on my 17 footer.

If you're talking F90 vs F115 I'd say go the F115. A friend of mine has the 185 w/F115, if it was any slower I think he'd sell it.
