    Get a Yamaha .... I think you’d be happier with this brand.

    I think small Suzukis are also made by Tohatsu, like Nissans , Mercurys, and Evinrudes. So shop around.

    My buddy has a 140 and a 9.9 on his Thunder Jet and they are nice engines.
    We have Yamaha's on our Duckworth, they're nice too.


    What's the 15 going on? Are you going to need electric tilt and start?(kicker on a big boat) . Or for a little boat?

    Going on a 12 foot Spratley. I like the idea of the fuel injection the Suzuki has.

    Yamaha all the way. Have a 20 hp on my Lund and a 4 hp for my 12 foot. Never let you down. Bought the 20 in 2010. Took it out for the first time this year and 2 pulls and away it went.

    Suzuki and Yamaha are both great engines. Although I do have a 8 horse tohatsu that’s about 20 years old that is indestructible
