I have a 1996 20' Dauntless(Dual Console) that I bought 3 years ago with a 200 Mercury. This model in 1997 was changed to the Ventura. Mercury is done so trying to find out if a new 4 stroke 150 Yamaha is enough power for this boat. Any help would be appreciated. I got prices on the Yamaha F150 and F200. About $5,000 difference.

The 1996 Dauntless 20 has these hp ratings......
Max hp = 225
Min hp = 130
I think a 150 would be grossly underpowered......
I would stay with a 200.........
In 1997, they still sold the Dauntless 20.........
1998 is when they changed to the Ventura 20 with the same exact HP ratings.....
