Made decision on aluminum boat War Eagle 1754 from Counce marine. Looking at 40-50 hp motors Evinrude, Mercury, Honda, Suzuki and Tohatsu. Let me hear from the Xperts pros and cons on Evinrude 2 stroke versus the 4 cycle competition.
Thanks, Hook

Throw rocks at 2 strokes and move on up to a 4-stroke and be done with it. Four strokers are quiet, start easily, get great mileage and can troll all day with no fuss.

Yammie 4 stroke. I have the 754 LDBR and the 50 hp does very well and sips the gasoline.
The only reason anyone is running a mid range two stroke these days is because they are cheap. Go ahead and get Eric to put you a Yammy 4 stroke on that boat before you pick it up and be done with it. Them War Eagles are tuff.
:hesaid
if i ever get another motor it will be a yammy 4. i was at the ramp one morning parked about 10 yards from atm and could not hear his motor running. i just noticed the little swirl of water the motor was making behind the boat. another thing if you can afford it get the max h.p. motor you boat's nameplate says it will take.....i am by no means a expert but take it from the guys above that are....
What they all said....Yamaha four stroke
Are you getting a model with tiller or console steering?
