kinda thinking about a 20 hp 4 stroke electric start
what's y'all's idea of best to buy
Just purchased a 25 Suzuki, good price and as of 1 month use couldn’t be anymore satisfied. Took a chance and purchased the motor on the internet from Boat Max On Line. From order to delivery took 8 days. Nearly 900.00 cheaper than any dealer in the area
thanks Ink ill check them out.. How you been doing bud haven't been seeing much on the board- too hot?
Just bought a 25 Mercury 4 stroke....satisfied so far...I don't think you can go wrong with Mercury, Suzuki, Tohatsu....don't think there's a nickel difference, the only reason I went with Mercury is because the dealership is close by and a mechanic friend works there.
Suzuki gets my vote.
Doing great Remus, it’s been hot but I don’t let that slow me down. Fishing has been good to very good most of the year on Santee. Here’s a couple pics from last Thursday and Friday and Sunday.Quote:

see a lot of yamahas
thanks to all for advice I finally settled on a 20 HP Suzuki from Boat Max on line seems like good people so far
ordered it Tuesday 13th and had it on the boat and running Friday afternoon 16th so no complaint on delivery.
but cranking it was funny- put it on the boat and put oil in it and hooked battery up- but guess what- yep I
touched the starter and before I could turn it lose it fired up and the gas tank was not hooked up lol.
I thought this thing is gonna be easy on gas if I can figure out how to cut it off before it blows up .:Doh:
again, thanks to all that chimed in with info and advice. hope to see y'all on the water soon
Same thing happened to me Remus. Touched starter before fuel tank was installed and “BAM” she was running. I suppose a little fuel is used to test start before packaging. I hope she does well for ya.
Suzukis will cut themselves off before you can hurt it. They have over rev and over temp shutoffs. Good luck with your new toy Remus!
finally got around to first part of breaking in my new Suzuki 20 it did - maybe a little better than I thought it would- seems like plenty of power to
to push the boat- just touched it off for about 50 yards (didn't want to strain nothing before full break in). I think I'm gonna get over 20 mph out of it but that's plenty fast for an old fart lol. now to get time to go is next problem after my little mishap Friday it might take a week or so to get the sore out so I can get in the boat.
haven`t seen much posted lately so thought I would put this up. hope this little cooler weather get everybody out and light up the board with good catches
