Tale of 2 ob-opinions plz
These are both 2 st carbed-no precise way to tell hours.
Both very clean. 2000 Johnson 150 ocean pro-run in salt water entire life 1994 yammi 150 SW series-run in fresh. Again, no way to tell hours-so let's assume same and both are equally clean. Either will be perfect on our boat. Ok-let the voting begin and why? Thx, bill

Yammi... It's not even a contest. Look... in their day both were reliable engines... BUT.. the one determining thing is the salt vs fresh. ANY engine, if properly maintained will give you years of service, but salt does things to an engine that are destructive and cannot be repaired... corrosion will eat away the metal, eventually, from any engine or ship. Given that both of your choices are the same HP, for the reason that Spare mentioned and for the reason of the fresh water there's really not much of a contest. Go for the Yammi, but remember that any used engine is a crap shoot.
