so you are saying you are going on holidays and want to buy a new motor while you are away, or you are moving? There will be plenty of Merc dealers around, my local had a 40HP tiller steer in stock when I was there on Saturday morning, so they must be reasonably common.

G'day,

Keep in mind that if it's the 2 stroke version it's more than likely the Japanese one. This means that the 40 is actually the same powerhead of the 50 tohatsu and to gain the extra 10hp is simply removing the throttle restrictor.

I got this info direct from the guys at wondall rd marine.

how much do you want for the 25??? and I am not 100% sure the restrictor is the only thing different on the Tohatsu.

I'm pretty sure it is mate, and this is from very reputable merc techs here.
