25 inch shaft Rude 135-175 Fichts weigh 427 each + injection tank - All the DFI's will do the same. 140 4 stroke Suzis weigh 421 each. and that's still alot of weight back there. The 250's have got to be at least 525-550 each, right? Even worse. Therefore one must consider FLOATATION bracket - add 300-800 pounds positive bouyancy to that stern, longer wetted surface - better performance, nice schwim platform
