Over nameplate HP void Insurance ( if you have and don't disclose). Over stresses the transom tremendously ( especially heavier 4 strokes). Stress is incredible from transporting over the roads.
And makes the boat unstable due to excessive speed. Too small to handle that power under normal operation but higher speeds.
That's why.
Also motors that small usually have NO ENGINE HOURS meters. The EFI computers may have it on the motor's computer board.
But the engine hours on these smaller O/B motors are simply pulled out of the owner's a*s and fabricated. Take any claims with a grain of salt.
