Jimbo, If you get the Zuke, have them just lay the 'ol "carb" Yamaha back inside the Scepter and take it to the Bahamas. The Bahamians love them and pay top dollar for 'em. They weld the gear cases in "Forward", remove the trigger switches, so they'll start and run them for another 20 years, occasionally changing the O2 sensors. They can be rebuild under a thatched hut for $1800 in parts, very low tech, very reliable. I think they figure "Gas is expensive in the Bahamas, but Mechanics are priceless".
