I like it. My uncle had a Starfire 175 with a hydraulic jackplate and about 300 hp back in the 80s.

Would be fun but Max hp rating is 150hp The boat is at a dealership in South Africa. I don’t think the South African market gives a damn about what the US Coast Guard deems appropriate Seems as though the motor hasn’t destroyed the boat yet. Bet it has a warranty too!

it would probably be like driving the 340V Ranger I had, about 16 feet in length with an XR5 150 Merc and a 25 inch predator 4 blade prop. Excellent hole shot and low speed performance but anything above 50 mph and it was pretty much undriveable.
I've kicked around doing the NizPro flash on 200 SHO to 332 HP and a much larger prop but not for the insane speed it would lay down. Niz Pro's website says because you run a much larrger prop it drops the RPM's at cruising speeds for much better fuel mileage, how much better I don't know but if it is substantial and someone can show me some actual number to justify it...............

I probably dont have the talent to drive it to its potential but i bet its fun I have the same hull with around 180-ish hp. I’ve got the one-handed-drinking a Diet Coke @ 60mph part down. It’d be the next 30 mph that would be a pucker factor.
