I had 2000 150 fichts on my 23. I used them with no problems for 3-4 years and about 400 hrs. (They had 450 hrs on them when I got the boat with them.) I had one EMM go which was about 700 bucks. My Fichts were great for me. That said, the parts are a fortune and you cant find many mechanics that like to / know how to fine tune issues with them. Annoys me a little when people over state problems with them. Id still stay away from them because of the above.
After having a kid they sat for two years and one engine wasnt right, sputtering. What was a seemingly minor issue, I wasnt willing to lay out the cash to an experienced Ficht guy so I sold them........I only got 2800 bucks for the pair.
