I'm looking for opinions on the best 40-50hp 4 stroke. I'm looking at either
the yamaha or honda. Any opinions or comments appreciated.

Honda if you can afford it and there is service nearby, otherwise, definatly
Yamaha.

anyone know where you can find MSRP on 4 strokes?

Thanks habbi,
Do you happen to know the exchange rate offhand (U.S/Canada)?
I'm considering a 20hp (BF20, manual start, 20" shaft) which is shown
at $3979 MSRP (canadian) and wondering how much that is in U.S.
dollars. A dealer here quoted me $2700 U.S. (his price, not MSRP) and
I'm wondering how much he knocked off the MSRP.
Come to think of it, I'm not even sure the MSRP for the two countries
exchange to equal values. Do you know?
TIA,
Rick

The current exchange rate is $US 1.00= $Can 1.35 or $Can 1.00= US 74¢.
That's not exact, but pretty close.
So, Canadian MSRP of $3979 equals $2945 US. I don't know if the MSRP is the
same, adjusted for exchange rate, in both countries. A factor might be any
import duties paid by the US or Canadian importer.

Thanks John. Sounds like my dealer knocked off a couple hundered from
the MSRP. With all the calculating he was doing, I was worried he
might be *adding* to it ;-) Anyhow, I'll be getting a second quote
at a boat show this weekend. If I find out the U.S. MSRP for sure,
I'll post it here for comparison.
Thanks,
Rick

Any particular reason to avoid Mercury or Suzuki (or the rebadged
Bombardier/Suzuki)? They offer EFI where the Honda and Yamaha do not.

Huh,
I didn't know that they don't offer EFI.

[following up on old thread]

As far as I know, Yamaha and Honda do not at this time offer EFI on
their 40 or 50 hp 4stroke. Mercury and Suzuki/Bombardier do.
