i just read that on another forum.i about puked!!!as i own a 2016

i thought you were sick like me when you heard the merc 40-60 ob was made in china???

i bought a new rig in april.it came with bth on the motoer.i gotta say,its super nice and really stout!you would not be disappointd!

mine has a merc smart craft gayge as well..does anybody do impeller work on these?if we got a extra 300 rpm out of it i would think that woould be 2-3 mph?

hey guys!...well after a lot of google-foo i realized that i was doing something wrong!i never would tilt my engine to positive trim when the engine was off,not in use.i started to do this and it seems the smoke went away.ive used the boat a few times since figuring this out and all is...

i picked up a new blazer with a factory merc 40 jet that has smoked at start up since day 1.i called the dealer and asked them about it and was told it was normal and would most likely go away by 50 hrs.i have 12 hrs on it now.just curious if anybody else has experienced this?

im fairly certain that the etec that was compared to the 60/40 merc is the detuned 90 block.i remember him mentioning that in the conversation.he didnt specify what they had to do with it though.these guys race these things and im pretty sure they keep specifics under the cuff.the guys that told...

oh yea,the boat is ordered as a 20 inch transom

i spoke to the guy that im getting my boat from about the etec engines.he was curious as well,so he went ahead and bought a 60 horse.he told me that he wasnt impressed.he said that they rigged that motor on a identical blazer to his sons.at first his sons boat,which has a 60/40 merc and not a...

did you guys see any performance loss or gain from adding one of these intakes?

nice rig!!well..i said f-it and just got the 60/40 merc..the deal was to good to pass up.besides the majority of places i go,i think a whole lot faster than 30 might be sketchy!..ill post pics of my new rig when i pick it up in april.the dealer assured me that 30 was doable with that...

yea ,i was affraid of that!..well,i guess ill have to part with something to make it happen!..im gonna have this boat for many yars to come,so i dont want ANY disappointments!

i just got the quote back....the boat is for sure a 1852,i just havnt decided on the motor..im struggling between just getting the 60/40 merc ,90/65 merc or the etec 60..it seems there is a jump of about 28-3000 between that 60/40 and the others.im not sure that 3-5 mph is worth that much money...

sorry,yea i should have been more specific..the merc quoted was a 90/65.it just seems to me that the 10 yr etec warranty has got to be the best deal.so,i think im gonna go ahead and order one locally.the only bummer is that the place im going to order the boat from isnt a evinrude dealer,so his...

my current rig

thanks for the replys guys!!im still undecided!.i found a 60 hp etc factory jet for 7900,where as the merc ive been quoted at 8500...go figure!lol...so the other factoring im fighting indesicion about is,whether or not to have a driver console this time.my boat now is a tiller but i have had...

hey guys,new to the site..i currently own a 18/52 blazer with a 40hp etec on it.thats 40 hp powerhead,so i assume about 28 out of the jet.im currently in negotions with myself about either getting a new boat or repowering the one i have.the only dislike with the current setup is the speed.with 2...
