Default Re: 225 Evinrude

OMC went chapter 11 a few years ago and the Rude/Johnson lines were picked up by Bombadier (trains, commuter jets, SeaDoo, SkiDoo, Rotax, and a bunch of other decent brands). The boat lines were bought by Genmar.

Bombadier supposedly really went over these engines and changed a LOT. Again, "supposedly" got them fixed right too. To the point where they are getting a lot of good press (not hard to get) and a lot of good reviews from those that own them (alot harder to get)...

Si, I'm waiting to hear more but everything that I have head about the 02 and newer engines is that they are great...
