[QUOTE="PATRIOT2, post: 280142, member: 6098"] I'll check with smalloutboards.com next week. Their webpage says "new" and in the next breath says "used one season". tnriverluver . . . Are you using the new 4-stroke on the same boat as your old 2-stroke? I just got back from running (trying to anyway) at 7700 ft in Colorado and I'm leaning away from a carbed motor and towards an injected motor with a MAP sensor. So far, that new 20HP Suzuki is injected, weighs 108 lbs, geared at 2.08:1, has electric start and thru cowl manual backup, and has my attention at $2995. I just don't want to be disappointed with the performance of a new 4-stroke and it's kinda difficult to test drive a new motor, and "Suzuki" may be an "unknown" quantity. :( But then I came across new 25HP 2006 Yamaha 25MLH 2-strokes for $1495. Decisions, decisions! [/QUOTE]
