Bodyshot,

My neighbor has an identical one to your picture. Has a 200 on it with a jack plate, on a blue trailer. He has had it for over 6 years. Did yours go to NH? I am waiting to move it over to my side of the street.

Since the boat is over 20' that rating is only "a recomended" amount and not an absolute maximum so yo shouldn't have an issue when it comes insurance time.

And definitely go with hydraulic steering. You will probably want some sort of setback/jackplate too. If you haven't been yet, make a trip over to screamandfly.com There are a bunch of guys with outboard 22' Velocity's and the board overall is more geared towards outboards. ;)

BMCCRAY, That is my boat. I purchased it last fall. I am putting a 300hp Vortec set up in it.

DKerns, you will have to let us know how she runs. That is the same set up I would liked to have gotten into:drink: Looks I'll be doing the outboard thing at least for one season.

Gripper, I will post some pics of the progress. Good luck with the outboard setup. I think you will be very pleased. They run and perform very well with outboards.
