what are they thinking??? Rotax underboard motor

[MrShane]

Just curious if a Suzuki was an option and how much price difference was there? I’ve owned a few Mercs, a Yammy F150, but those reviews of the ‘Zukes’ look awfully tempting if I ever buy a new boat again.

Be sure you check out warrenty, service, and reliability of the suzy outboards.  Back in the 80s, it sucked.  Possibly they have improved over the years.  I'm sticking with a Merc 4-stroke on my new Lund. 

The new Suzukis are amazing.
If Yamaha did not dominate the outboard world I’m sure Suzuki is #2?
A guy cannot go wrong with a Yammy also.
I personally put a two stroker Mercury on my boat in my 2016 build, but I am a huge fan of two strokes and I realize that is not the norm.
Mercury hit a home run with there 150 four stroke line.
Kinda seemed like it saved Merc, not unlike saving the Ram line of trucks when they teamed up with Cummins.
Tohatsu might be #3 in world wide sales possibly?
Those Honda outboards are proven performers also but until Honda puts their motors on a serious diet they will not be top sellers in Utah’s market.
I’m just tickled there are so many outboards being used nowadays, using outboards will definitely help slow the spread of invasive mussels.
