The price of a 135 hp Yamaha outboard is $14,000+, **** for brains. I
would guess you could buy at least two or maybe three I/O's of that
horsepower for that money.


I am surprised it is not MUCH higher since it would be a custom made
motor.Yamaha does not make a 135
OTOH you can get a 150 for less than 12k

Yamaha F150LB Four Stroke In-Line 466 lb

If you can find a 150 I/O with the drive and all of the other stuff
you need for that, buy it. Then we will look at your maintenance costs
over 10 years or so.



Ahh, I meant 150 like the Tammy I had. Merc makes or made a 135.
