Hi all...<br /><br />bought a new BW Nantucket recently and will take delivery in mid January. I chose a 115hp 4stroke, becux its the only 4 stroke offered by BW. Other posts here and especially on another forum have made me wonder if I should accept the boat with only the Mercury 115HP 4 stroke. I suspect the Suzuki 140HP 4 stroke would be a great marriage, while the Yamaha 150 4 stroke might be too heavy. Anyways those aren't choices you have with BW.<br /><br />Perhaps I can ask the dealer to take off the 115 when it is delivered....sell it....and put on a japanese 4 stroke outboard that he can procure? Has anyone done this? Would you recommend it? How would you talk to the dealer? How much do you think it will cost? (ie the difference between an installed suzuki 140 less the new 115hp mercury 4 stroke that can be credsited towards it)<br /><br />The salesman at the dealer is a swell guy...I like him....he has told me that I will be happy with the 115 pre-rigged and to give it a try (the test drive did go well....it aint a rocket but its smooth and quiet....and yet I still have a second though because the boat costs so much I figure I may just want to get it right at the beginning).<br /><br />I asked this question on another forum, and it sparked juvenile attacks; I'm looking for info from pros who have been there and can relate, and not trying to pick a fight regarding Boston Whaler marketing ploys. Thanks guys/gals.
