Default Re: Who makes a better outboard?

Reel,
I know if a guy who just picked up a brand new 225 Ficht for $12,500 up here in Miami or Ft Lauderdale some place. I will have to see where he got it from and let you know. $14,800 seems a bit high unless you are getting all the controls and rigging in that price........

On another note, I have decided on a motor and really want everyones opinion here before I go sign on the dotted line.....

I have decide to go with the 250 EFI Merc but still have the choice of going with the 225 Opti so, tell me guys........I have heard so much negative news about the Opti I was going to stay with the EFI. I am a diehard Yamaha fan and really like the Ficht but I was going to try out the Merc for a change. Figured if you take care of them, they will all really wind up being just as good as the other at this point in time...

Opinions????

John
