What's that Mako rated for, Charlie? :confused: <br /><br />I suspect even the 115 is overpower.<br /><br />If my suspicion is right it would be a very bad idea. :eek:

I believe a Mako 17 is rated for 135. The 150 is overkill.

I already assumed the 150 was a little big but i dont have many choices.I have been looking for a used motor since October and the only ones that I have come up with that are in my price range are either too big or too small and too old.This is the first clean,newer motor that I can afford.My second choice is an 82 140 johnson but I really dont want to replace a salty old motor with another less salty old motor.I think the 150 weighs about another 60 lbs.I understand the point.What would the harness cost???Charlie
