Started looking for a "new" Yamaha

[Darth VMAX]

If anyone knows of a clean 2001-2004 2.6L 200 Vmax HPDI or 3.1L 250 Vmax Ox66 let me know.

Thanks

a buddy of mine is looking for a 250 but wants to sell his 300 hpdi its good and strong but I'm unsure of the hours.

[Darth VMAX]

Can't do a 3.3L HPDI, they are just too heavy for my boat. I will ONLY be able to swing the 3.1L Because Hydro-Tec can lighten them up and shorten the mid down , even then it will be unchartered territory on a XB2002...

I am actually torn between which direction to go.. 2.6L 200 HPDI or 3.1L 250 Ox66.

Don't know much in this area, but I would stick with what you know works. That's a lot green to lay down for something that you're not sure of.

Keep hydro tec on speed dial. ;)

Theres a 2.4 260 Merc Bridgeport for sale on the "other" site. I know your a Yammy guy but it should would be sweet.

Remington I also know he could save some weight and get rid of the grey......AND REPLACE IT WITH BLACK...That alone will make it faster............

Sorry Darth......You know I had to buddy..........I will stop in at the local shop and see what he has in his stall...Last time I looked he had a Phase One Hro sittin there.

[Darth VMAX]

Not so sure, I had a drystacked 2.4L 200 Merc on before my Yamaha 2.6. They actually were very close in weight. That Yamaha would smoke the merc in the mid-range all the way to the top until the TRP's drag was too much.

[remington]

You would know better than I would my friend.

Thanks Guys,

AS for the Hydro-Tec stuff, thats who built my current Yamaha
(2.6L 200 Vmax Carb, Phase II kit and TRP Lower-unit with twin 27's).

I am VERY familiar with them and have been the thier shop more times than I can remember. I consider Wayne, Nathan and Matt friends. They WILL get my business again for my next motor.

Never have been on Ebay, I might have to try that

Darth....... I am curious.......... how bad did yours grenade?

[Darth VMAX]

There is a big ol hole in the left side of the block where a rod decided to exit. I will most likely save what parts I can if I get a 200 HPDI and part the rest out.

We have a Skeeter/Yamaha dealer here where I brought my SHO for the 20 hour service. A salesman was telling me they can't sell a boat with a HPDI on the back.

I don't know why they couldn't unless they are priced too high...

Darth I was at the boat shop yesterday and all he has right now is a 150 Pro, and a 130......the other motors went to good homes.
