#1 or #4 would be my choices. YAMAHAs are good engines, but when you need parts it gets expensive REAL quick. The 150/175 OMC's are great engines, but I would rather have a standard rotation myself for better prop selection. The 90 degree OMC loopers are plentiful out there, and parts are readily available and cheap by comparison to the rest. Plus you already have the OMC controls.

I'm with Ferm, #1 or #4. #4 because as soon as you get something the deal of the century will get posted in the classified section.

I'll give you my old 90 model 225 with controls and prop for your Mckee.

i say #4 since you will be having the 140 shipped from NY plus there are a ton of 200 / 225 J/E motors out there.

It doesn't run does it?

#1 if it runs well, is reliable and will get you out on the water for the summer. Then just keep scouring the ads in case it breaks down on you. And go ahead and replace the impeller.

Sorry y'all. The 140 is actually in sc now. Guy moved here from ny... its only a couple hrs from me. Waiting on a little more info on the yamaha. Leaning towards the 140 as it leaves me some work on money etc...

Ditto.

However,..I like the Yamaha s alot. The 90 I had was bulletproof even after being sunk twice.
