Default Re: not an etecb but....

Yea list price maybe, never sold for that much. But I will tell you they are great motors, very reliable but if I did not have the money for an etec or hull that would handle a 4 stroke it would be the yammie 2 stroke period.
The dealer where my friend just bought his 2550 maycraft had three gorgeous boats in the yard, new for sale with ox66 yammie two strokes on them. I asked why he powered them with the older design engines, he said that the pro fisherman down there won't go out with the new tech engines, he said they want one engine and one engine only and that is the one that has served them for many many years reliably, the yammie two stroke. I thought he was BS'n me but he told me two of the three were sold as soon as he ran an add in the paper with the 0x66 info on them and had the third one being sea trialed the same day we were there.
