Default RE: Mercury Optimax opinions???

Ok, i am gonna preach on this on although i doubt it will be as long as Reds replay.


These motors are absolutley great. THEY DO GET BETTER FUEL MILEAGE THAN FOUR STROKE AND WE ALL KNOW THAT IS A BIG THING NOW THAT GAS PRICES ARE VERY VERY HIGH.

the second thing is that this thing is fast we can get ahavey saltwater bay boat going up to 60 on one motor so you know that is some serious power.

Dont listen to the e-tec commercial that is circulating on the tv they are comparing their two strokes to four stroke which arent apples to apples.

they are 100 lbs lighter which will give you more speed.

Finally, thw two most improtant matters. They cost less than a 4 stroke which is huge like 3000 doolars i think correct me if i am wrong. They are alos a great overall motor and you will have mercury durability on the back of your boat and me i would have it no other way



BRent
