How is the performance of the Yamaha 250 with 6 to 8 people on board?

It suffers a little but nothing crazy, have had 4 adults and 4 young kids on and it’ll cruise at around the same speed. Getting on plane is a little slower but not a big difference. Luckily the 250 is the same engine as the 300 without a tune essentially from what I’ve read, and has a good amount of torque.

As for the transom remote, we have 3 of these wireless ones on our boat with a Fusion head unit. They’re cheap and absurdly easy to install. https://www.garmin.com/en-US/p/641993
