Take a look at this one for 22' models.
http://www.whalercentral.com/articles. icle_id=30
are they both 90 degree motors or is one of them a 60 degree motor or a fuel injected or 4-stroke?? Generally speaking if you run the same speeds that you were with the 150 you should get close to the same fuel milage, but if you will run faster it will cost you some MPG. Also the 225 is about 75 pounds heavier, that will have a small effect also..rule of thumb for is 1 gallon of fuel consumption for every 10 HP at full throttle..I have found this to be pretty close for most every carbbed motor I have owned. so if this is true 150 at full throttle will burn 15 gallons per hour and the 225 will burn approx 22.5 gallons per hour, but you should go further in an hour because of increased speed, but you will most likely burn more fuel with the 225 than the 150 if you go the same distance, providing both motors are in good operating condition. I am assuming you are using the SAME BOAT also or you can just throw this all out the window. bigger boat + bigger motor = bigger gas bill. more

Hi guys, I know the 225 is a bigger motor but would the newer 225 burn just as much as the older 150? Someone told me that these are just as bad or even worse on fuel than the 150's, is this true? Can I get some feedback from you Johnson 225 guys and anyone who has some positive info please.

2015 Boston Whaler 190 Outrage This is a 1 owner boat, used 1 time on Lake Winni!! There may be 2 hours on the engine!! Powered with a Mercury 150 4-Stroke EFI. Trailer is NOT included. The 190 Outrage gives you superior quality and big-boat capabilities in a high-value boat-engine-trailer package. Fish with versatility; the 190 Outrage's 12-inch draft makes it ideal for backwater or bay fishing, but its 22-inch freeboard, V-hull and massive fuel capacity make it equally adept at offshore trolling. Hardcore anglers will appreciate options like a livewell, tackle drawers and console-mounted rod holders---as well as the power of the standard 150-hp Mercury FourStroke Verado. Ample creature comforts, like a swim platform with ladder, numerous drink holders, and deluxe bow and aft seating, mean the 190 Outrage is a family-and-friends-pleaser, as well. here
