Hi all,

I have a friend (really!) that wants to buy a 40HP four stroke for a new
pontoon. He is set on four stroke, wants it quiet and reliable, top speed
is probably not a critical factor. Environmentally friendly, did I mention
that? I've helped *try* to do some research on Honda vs. Yamaha (vs. Suzuki
vs. Tohatsu etc.), and I usually find what I want on the net, but I've found
precious little that does any comparsion of quality, customer satisfaction,
reliability, and what I've found generally is the high end. So, if anybody
has any thoughts, has been through this and would like to share their
expertise, please pass it on.

thanks!

Glenn Good
