reel smoker good to hear from you. I am planning a dolphin trip in june, see you then. I love the fitch, burns more oil then they told me esp at 1500- 2000 rpm, excellent torque and no problems so far.

Madman, June yeap I cant wait for the summer weather, I cant stand this 55 degress anymore.
Hopefully by then I'll have a new motor ,now Bomb might make easier with the 7 year warranty but I heard that Yamaha came out with 5 years.That four stroke looks very appealing now an the price is not much more. The service is what I have to look into.Its all about decisions but you try to make the right one for the best boat out there a SEACRAFT.I've pretty much came to the conclusion if I hang a new motor Ill keep her for a long time,at least a little longer than the wife.

It is a 2 stroke. There is a recall on the early 2004 150 thru 250 due to a problem with the fuel rail on the return side. It was a vendor probelm that is taken care of. There is only a handfull of bad rails out there.

Joe, does the standard Evinrude gauges work with the Ficth and I would think so but does the prop from my 1996 Carburated Evinrude fit a 225 or 250 Ficth. Thanks again
