Hey,

After attending Boat Scene's excellent on water day last year (more dealers need to take this approach with their customers. Being able to drive the boats/engines turned me from a critic to a possible owner of a new outboard!)

I drove a range (30hp, 130hp, 175hp) of the ETEC engines, I am looking at repowering my boat from a Suzuki 175 to an ETEC175. The performance out of the hole and mid range really impressed the hell out me and it was as smooth and quite at idle and through the rev range.

Has anyone done the same and what was the end result?

Cheers

;)
