2008 Road King trailer is available for purchase as well and currently under boat.
His above numbers are very close to what I see with the very same combination. Good performance with the F225 when propped correctly and over 3-mpg at cruise. Vern nice looking boat...
That boat is a beauty! ...If you know anyone that wants to upgrade the motor I have a 2008 F250 for sale....Good luck with the sale, If I sell it in time I might jump on this!

Buy the boat, swap engines and sell the old one...
Greg B now your thinking, but I would rather sell both engines and get twins or a 350 behind that boat.....we shall see what happens I am getting some action on the motor and I am really interested in this rig.
How much space is between the leaning post and the transom? Could you post some pics of that too?
I have never seen a 23 up close before and there is no dealer in my area. I am shopping for something in the 23 to 25 range and this is on my short list.
Thanks!
There is plenty of room for twins. The fuel tank is set up for twins as well. The picture I have is an old shot from before I purchased it but it does show the width of the transom. There is about 3 feet from the back of the leaning post to the splash well door. Thanks
Pictures added above.
Good point, please do not confuse this sparkley boat as new. It is a 2005.
I have no idea if this boat could handle a 350 Yamaha. I would assume WASQUE is correct and would not advise it.
Thanks. Should be good to go with twin 150's or as is.
I think this boat will handle the F350. Regulator rigged these models with twin 200 HPDIs and their combined weight must be more than the single F350. You might want to place a call to Regulator to get the scoop.
