My buddy has what he believed to be a 1993 Johnson 150 outboard. The boat is a 21ft Privateer and tops out a 41mph.
Talking with another 21ft privateer owner with an '89 Johnson 150 he only gets a bit over 30mph.
Where on the block can you see what the actual motor size is?
The Powerpack was just replaced and under it there was a serial number that began 175xxxxxx, could this be a 175hp motor with 150 cover?
