i had one on a little 14ft twin vee and it would get 3 people on plain about 18-20 mph.
also one night it rained so hard that the boat partially sank at my dock and the engine was halfway under water, started with no problem.

Why,Why,Why???????
Halve of all my work now consists of caarb and ign. related to 4 strokes.With all the hype the prices for them is at a premium.
What size pontoon boat, most be small for a motor that size.I have a 3 cyl. Yamaha oil injected 40HP on our 20 footer.At cruise burns about 1 gal per hr,5 to 7 mph.
No valves to adjust or oil and filter changes,The Boat Doctor don't want no 4 stroke................IMHO

I ended up buying it for $1500 to replace our worn out 1980 evinrude. Runs great, no smoke, quiet.
24' pontoon, small lake. Runs as fast as it did with the old 35.
