    PLB, EPIRB or an overwhelming belief that you are immortal.

    Just a quick poll to determine the mind set of people in regards to electronic beacons. For the purpose of the poll please assume that you are boating on a large body of water where you could float for a week without seeing land or another boater and that you have a small child with you(one that...

    Miami Boat Show

    Just wondering if anyone else looked at the engines last week and if so, what did you think? That GM, stupid*ss, almost 500 hp outboard thing on the back of the Intrepid? was bizarre. Also, who from iboats was down there? I know there was someone with an iboats shirt on in our display at one...

    Thank you ?Country of Manufacture? poll

    Thank you to everyone who voted and/or made a comment on the ?Country of Manufacture? poll. A quick tabulation of the results are as follows: 50% are willing to buy an outboard regardless of where manufactured. 27.91% draw the line at one country or another. 17.44% feel strongly enough about...

    Does country of manufacture influence your buying decision?

    Most people are more concerned with price, warranty etc., however, I suspect that virtually everyone looks at country of origin to some degree and resigns themselves to buying something that is not made "here". This poll is more about how much influence that manufacturing point makes in your...

    The Miami Boat Show Blues

    What a dud so far:) New 60 hp DFI 4-strokes from from Suzuki and Honda. Nothing new from Mercury. Too bored to even look at Yamaha and Tohatsu's contribution to this excitement is a camouflaged model 20 hp for hunters:)....And if one more consumer asks me where he/she/it can get a new, small...

    How old is your newest outboard?

    Looking at the makeup of the "Brand Poll", that has been here for awhile, has prompted me to see how many people utilize "modern" engines rather than older designs. This poll is not meant to infer anything about one engine being "better" than another due to age. What I'm interested in is why the...

    New 2009 E-tec 25 -30

    I'm depressed...It turns out the E-tec 25 is only in the 140-150 lb range. I was hoping it would be up in the 180 lb range. The good news for other brands is that it is a 2-cylinder instead of a 3-cylinder! Hopefully that will make it a dog out of the hole or at least make it like a 4-stroke.

    Wierd little jet outboard from the 60's?

    Back in the early 60's we took a couple of small(5-10 hp) outboards in trade. They were silver in color and had what looked like 4 or 5 inch pipe elbows with plastic prop impellers on the lowerunit instead of regular props. I remember them as being air cooled, but that was 40 years ago and they...

    How many of you out there have run synth at 100:1 in an outboard that calls for

    I'm looking for real experience, not theory, that any of you have running an engine that call's for 50:1 with a 100:1 mixture of any brand synthetic. Long term...at least 100 hours of operation. No hidden agenda on this. Just curious. So few people actually run synthetic in pre-mix engines...

    Suzuki DT25 C vs Tohatsu 25 2stroke

    The Tohatsu has one carb. The Suzuki is a much more powerful engine up to half throttle, then their equal. The Tohatsu weighs 101 lbs....If your carrying them around the Tohatsu will keep you out of the hospital. If you are going to leave it on the back of the boat the Suzuki has a lot more hole...
