I had a Merc racing XS on my 22' Triton lts that would do 62mph. In my Haynie LS I can hit 70 with the same motor. I promise a SHO would not touch those numbers on the same boats. What it boils down to is this. Mercury = (cost less up front,but more on repairs in the end), faster but uses oil. SHO = cost more, slower than a mec, uses more gas(i have hear this from more than one person) but change oil once a year. Do your research and make you choice.
fixed it!!!
