Hello folks,
I purchased a 1992 TX155 a few years ago and i absolutely love the boat..very well set up for my needs. However, i found that the Johnson 28hp(weight approx 130lbs) it came with is lacking in power department...especially when 2 are in the boat.
I recently purchased a 2001 Yamaha 40hp 2stroke(weight approx 187lbs). My question is has anyone on here re-powered a TX155 over the suggested max HP?? If so, would my transom need some re-enforcing to compensate for the extra 60lbs and 5 hp?? The transom on the boat look quite solid. Any info would be greatly appreciated.
Also, would any know where i could get some info on the sea nymph TX155 or perhaps have some additional info for me?? I've tried the internet, and it seems to be limited.
Thank you in advance
Nick
