Yeah I think you’d even want something bigger than a 5.0 like a 5.7. I have a 5.0 in my 21 ft bow rider about 250 hp. For sure it good and powerful, as I can pull up skiers with 7 people in the boat, but I think that same engine in a 23 ft with a bunch of gear would be underpowered, let alone a 4.3I want it for fishing. pure ocean boat 4 blokes plus all the gear needed for a day. Cheers mate I thought as much.
