advice on suzuki outboard

[Jon G]

Marc my first hand info on Suzuki is with a forty horse and I was very impressed with it. This thing would troll for an hour and never cough or sputter and would not load up at all on take off. I used it last year on a frieands whaler and was very impressed with it. I've been having engine troubles lately and went to look at the Suzuki 140. Great engine and the dealer said they have repowered six 20' seacrafts with them(including one of there workers boats). I talked to a guy yesterday with a 115 Suzuki on a 20' and I could barley hear the engine running I think I am heading that way when its time to repower. I have seen a few of the 200-225's around and have heard nothing bad about them. Down hear on the Cape in the Chatham area Suzukis are everywhere now, you can't go a mile on the water without seeing four of them. Plus the price on the 140 was very resonable comaperd to other engines.
Good luck, Jon
