Looking at buying a 1997 2 cycle 80hp Yamaha outboard...<br /><br /><br /> Does anyone know anything about this year motor, I notice that yamaha doesn't make a 80hp today, and as far as I know this seems to be the only 80hp, that Yamaha made? i guess ? . Was this year a good year for Yamaha? Is this a good motor? Can I still get parts for this motor today? Is and was this a reliabily outboard. Was this outboard built well? What are the pros and cons of a Yamaha 80hp????????????????<br /><br /> I certainly don't want to buy this motor IF this was the only year that Yamaha made the 80hp, b/c this only means that it was a bad year??????<br /><br /><br /> Please anyinfo before Sunday would help<br /><br /> Thanks in advance Rcobb in SC
