Time to spend more $$$

Is this "the" motor for the 20'?

The new yamie F150 looks to be 56lbs heavier.

Guys that have one, like, dislikes, cost?

Any other thoughts, i am looking into all options 2 or 4 stroke.

BTW: Thanks Scott, Ronnie at Monahan's is the man.

Heres a 140 suzi 2 stroke for half the price
of the 4 stroke. If money is not a issue the
4 stroke w/6 year warr would be nice. I think
the Yam is too heavy.

04 FICT 150 Johnson.. Burns the same fuel as the 4 stoke, with more punch.. Plus it comes in white to match the boat.. [img]images/icons/rolleyes.gif[/img] Thats the way I'm gonna go when it time to retire the 88 spl

Nick,
Glad to hear Monahan's worked out for you.

Hello Nick-

I was a die hard Yamaha fan, have had twin 200's on the Contender and they have been flwless for over 500 hours.

However, I chose the Suzi 140hp 4S for my 20. I am in awe of this engine.

Never have I spent so little on fuel. I filled my 55 gal tank once back in August and have gone on 4 decent fishing trips. the tank now reads 2/3 full!!!

It is quiet, clean, efficient, less expensive than its competiters, proven, and lightest in its class.

As a bonus for me, my best friend, Scott Potter at Viking Marine is a dealer and is down the street from me.

I am thrilled with the engine, give Scott a call @ 401-682-2339.

So Jason, how is the boat? I haven't spoken to you since the cookout when the engine had just been put on.
