Looking at a 24' pontoon with a 50 efi merc on it, the test ride motor did not have power to plane or go any speed. it is still for sale and being fixed. its a 2006 outboard.

should I bring this motor into the family we need a long lasting motor and not to dis the forum I told the buyer to look for one with a yamaha. but this motor is very clean and low hours.

anyone like these efi 50hp's ? 50HP big foot outboard 2006

Pontoons don't plane. They sort of scoot however. By not getting any speed, exactly what are you implying.
