Osprey Outboards?

[wewak1111]

Another question, guys...while searching for a new motor for my tinnie, found a brand new Osprey 15hp 2 stroke for $1850. The dealer reckons they're Yamahas with Osprey badges...anyone had anything to do with them? I can get a new Johnno 15 for $2390 which was in the lead till I came across these. Cheers.

Ospreys are chinese knock off
well not so much knock off but the older molds and then made to their specs useing the chinese components

i haven't heard much about them yet so hard to say if they are worth a pinch or just a waist of money

OK, I figure you only get waht you pay for....thanks, mate, I might stick with the Johnno
