Re: Evinrude E-Tec
Here are some pictures of the etec 175. I had posted these about a month ago, and they are also available in my gallery under v21.

Curious and sorry if I missed it, but what happened to the 200?...did it poop out on ya or you just decide it was time?... |
Re: Evinrude E-Tec
I've been logging tons of hours on the engine so far, and have zero complaints. I don't know how fast she goes, but it feels the same. It definitely gets up on plane quicker despite having 25 hp less. Fuel consumptions is sooo much better too. Though I don't have any numbers - just a lot less trips to the pump.
I decided to move my boat up to the Raritan bay/Sandy Hook, New Jersey area this year and wanted to have a 100% reliable engine since I often boat with my family. Previously, I was pretty much in the Barnegat Bay. I was actually in NYC harbor two weeks ago and was glad I had the new engine with all the tankers, cruise liners and commercial traffic. (Plenty of military presence too - guarding the bridges). I traded in my 200 Evinrude, he gave me $3500 for it and I didn't want the hassle of dealing with a sale. |
