Well my 1987 Force 125 HP finally bit the dust. I am looking at a nice fuel injected Mercury 115 HP to power my 18' Bayliner center console. We use it to cruise, fish and occasionally wakeboard. Do you think the Merc 115 will have equivalent power as the Force 125 had?

Thanks for your opinion!

While there are no guarantees in life, you probably will be satisfied with the Merc. In all probability it will perform better than the Force

Exactly what im looking to do. How easy is the swap? Will the 115 work with any of the Force stuff?
