:lol:im looking to get another boat I like the polar 23 walkaround . A lot of them come with 115 twin Yamaha's on them im wondering if they have to work to hard to push it and wondering about fuel milage maybe 150's would be better. anybody have a opinon? thanks

I have an older 23'r with twin 110s. They run great and are relatively economical. Having said that If I were to buy new I might go for the 150s and that is because if one of the engines fail a 115 will be hard pressed to get the boat on plane while a 150 should do it.
