See if you can find Harry's YoHo in the photos. This is sort of like

Did you notice the images of the CC's with the T-tops?

Those T-tops make a huge difference in the looks of the boat.
Hell, if I could get one with ETECs, I might buy one.
I had a tee-top on one of my SeaPros. Nicely done tee-top, too, from a
top-grade fabricator. Naturally, I had to have a special cover made to
accommodate the tee-top. The tee-top gives a lot less shade, and it
creates quite a bit more drag for the boat while it is on the water or
being towed.
When the sun is too hot for me, I flip up the oversized bimini top on my
Parker. Blocks the sun over the console almost completely, and the
overhang in the front helps there, too. Doesn't interfere with fly
fishing, which I do from near the bow, doesn't interfere with fishing
from the rear of the boat. Rarely have I had to "walk a fish" around any
boat.
I'm sure you can get one with an Etec...just buy the boat, remove the
Yamaha, sell the Yamaha and its rigging, and then buy an Etec and
install it.
Better yet, wait a while until Bombardier gets out of the outboard
business and sells the Evinrude name to someone else. Someone
in...oh...China!
