I want to replace my 70hp Evinrude with a 115hp Mariner that weighs 348 lbs. I know it is above the hp recommendation, but am I ok on weight? The Mariner is in great shape for the year.

You can compare the weights of other current motors here.

Looks like the weight will be fine since the 4 strokes are heavier.

Thanks for the reply,
