Just wanted to say hello and thank you for posting all the great information.
We bought a 1986 25' Outrage from a great guy named Charlie, who lives in Washington, a couple years ago.
Although I have 100 ton license and have spent several years working on boats, I'm a little new to the Boston Whaler fraternity. I'm also on the small boat maintainance learnig curve!!! (UH OH)
Right now, our boat has a 225 Evinrude Oceanpro, but I would like to move up to a 200 or 250 four stroke. The boat runs great, but seems a bit weight sensitive. When I say weight sensitive, I mean 4 people and 6 days worth of camping gear and 140 gallons of fuel... So maybe not so much. ha ha...
Anyway, I'll start posting pics and such in the near future.
