My family mostly runs Yamaha or Mercury (except me I have an old Rude on my bass boat), but all 2 stroke. My friends dad has a Yammie 150 4 stroke on an Express and that thing is sweet. BTW the engine in question is going on a Ranger 23 Bay.

If its between those two I would go with yamaha. Here are the performance bulletins on similar boats. I threw in the suzuki just for comparison although the bluewave it was tested on is 500 or so lbs lighter than than your Ranger. The Triton the Verado was tested on is 200 or so lbs lighter than your Ranger
