Looks like something Halliburton would sell us...for %5 million.
Ok Harry - I mean like - dude - what's 5 million percent? :)
Hey, what kind of engine to you have on "Yo Ho"?
F225 Yamaha
Is that a four stroke or HPDI? In either case, how do you like the
motor?
The reason I ask is that I stumbled into one hell of a deal on two
Yamaha 225 HPDI motors yesterday. I'm considering changing the FICHTS
on the Contender this winter (a friend who is in the commercial
fishing bizz wants them - his are flat worn out) and I was thinking
about new E-TECS or FICHTS, but these Yamaha's are just too good a
deal.
Any advice?
Later,
Tom

Mine is a four stroke, and the motor has been fine. No problems
whatsoever. At idle you can barely tell it is running. At cruise and
higher, it seems about as loud as any other outboard of similar hp.
I don't know much about the hpdis, other than I see a lot of them out on
the bay.

What, me worry?
