Assuming low hours (< 100) and properly maintained, would you recommend one of these outboards over the other? I'm most interested in general reliability.
Some background:
I know the situation with Evinrude closing doors, but I don't think this is a concern over the next ~ 5 years which I'd probably own the outboard (given extended warranty to I think 2027). Please correct me if you see differently.
I've been looking at used bay boats (mod V). I see many Yamaha's such as the F150LB, and have a general perception of these being reliable outboards (I4, 4 stroke). I've come across a couple of interesting boats with these 2 stroke, 3 cylinder Evinrudes, and I really don't have any experience with these so looking to tap into this forum's collective wisdom.
Thanks in advance!
