The thing is that everyone does not seem to understand is, it would not matter what engine any off the commercial or rescue boats have. They all have there problems...

Andd yes the Suzuki is good. It's as good as any other motor on the market...

Seafarer Viking,
Max engine weight...... 195kg
Max engine power.......150hp

Suzuki 140....2ltr..........186kg
Suzuki150.....2.8ltr.......211kg

this is a very good reason behind why the 140 Suzy exists in the market. The largest 4 stroke motor (other than the Suzy 140) you could fit to the above-mentioned Viking would be a 115hp (all bar the Honda 115 which is 225kgs) . Every other 4 stroke above 115hp is way too heavy. It would be the same story for a lot of popular boats of the Viking's size and ilk.
