I'm looking for a 2.5HP 4-stroke outboard to power an aluminum fishing boat.
At present, either the Yamaha or Suzuki would fit the bill "on paper".
Would someone with first-hand experience with the two help me decide by
pointing out the
advantages and disadvantages of each.
Yes, I'm already aware that the Suzuki is about $100 cheaper and 7 pounds
lighter than the Yamaha,
so let's start there.

TIA.
