[QUOTE="nomowork, post: 226707, member: 6029"] I can't recommend any motor. In the older Johnson motors, the only difference between the 9.9 and 15hp two strokes were the size of the carbs which were interchangeable from what I read. There is obviously going to be a performance difference in a higher horsepower motor. In my opinion, more horsepower is always better. My Gregor was rated for maximum 20hp and that's what the original motor was. I couldn't make it reliable so with an upcoming long fishing trip for a week, I opted to buy a brand new motor and anything above 15hp wasn't available for local pickup here. Price and weight was a consideration too. I am cheap and lifting that 15hp four stroke was a chore! [/QUOTE]
