I'm new to the club. Looking to repower my Sea Ray Laguna 23 flush deck cuddy with new twin 150 HP mercury four stroke motors. I currently have twin 135 HP Optimax motors. I saw a post regarding repower for a 24,but I didn't see specifically repower with merc 150 four strokes. I was wondering if the additional weight makes a difference, 454 lbs four stroke vs 433 lbs 2 stroke. I personally don't think it's an issue, but any input would be appreciated.
 
Doesn’t sound like a large enough difference to be a problem. I have a 150 fourstroke on my 19 SPX and I am very happy with it. I have about 100hrs on it and it has been flawless. Most of those hours are water sports so lots of hole shots and dragging weight behind it.
 
Thank you Jeremygavin, I appreciate your reply.
