Default Update: Got the Tohatsu. Am Pleased With It.

Not trying to be a jerk, Wilbur, but you were pretty ugly to me for suggesting
that back when you wanted to fix the old motor...

But I'm glad you found one that fills your needs.

My new Tohatsu 6HP SailPro arrived last week and I'm very pleased with it.

I junked the old 9.9 Honda, the block of which corroded through in the water
jacket and a chunk of the casting broke away and it hairline-cracked on the
opposite side in an oil passage causing it to mist oil there. I'm afraid the
Honda is no salt water engine (ten years old and little used). Stay away
from them as they have a bad reputation for corrosion around here.
