I've enjoyed reading the for/against posts by the various members regarding which engines are best, most durable, lightest weight, etc. As is usually the case, there are diehard believers in both camps who would like to promote their own choice of engine while drawing attention to the faults of the competitors outboards without acknowledging that all manufacturers usually have both strengths and weaknesses.

I have yet to read a post by an OWNER of an HPDI, Honda, Suzuki, etc. that did not really like their engine. If you currently OWN an engine that you are really having problems with, lets hear about it. However, speculative talk of potential problems have never caused me to catch less fish.

Let's hear from that member that actually used a stainless prop on a Suzuki 140 and ruined his engine when he hit an oyster bed... being in the market for that engine, I'm all ears.
