They are top outboards, Jason is very happy with his Honda and never had a problem,
Cheers Greg

Listening to one of these starting, and watching this video over and over, sounds like my Mom's Canadian-made 2015 Honda CR-V starting up. Exactly the same, but then again, these motors apparently have a number of similarities to the CR-V engines and looking at them without the cover, they're basically that tilted 90 degrees.

[Reefari]

Quality outboard, Jason's very happy with his, but most modern motors are pretty reliable now, and come with good warranty's, and all the best.
Cheers Greg

honda makes good stuff period . every honda I have owned has been terrific

[Reefari]

Not cheap in Australia, check with your local Honda dealer would be the best, top motor and great quality,
cheers Greg

[Reefari]

Yamaha are very good outboards too and I've had a few Yamaha's, Jason's had a very good run with Honda and very happy. I'm running Suzuki at the moment, twin 300HP's

I'm sure there's not much in it between outboards, but having a auxiliary outboard for trolling is a good idea and save putting a heap of hours up on the Main engine, plus always handy to get home if you ever have a breakdown and it does happen,

I've always had 4 strokes, main difference is servicing the oil in the sump versus oil burnt in the fuel, Expensive on Evinrude E-tecs. Two strokes maybe a bit lighter, and faster excelleration, Fuel consumption seems to be very similar,

I’ve only got a Honda 50 😩 but my boat is halve the size 😊 have not tried it yet as have been refurbishing the boat hopefully soon 😳

[Reefari]

Hard to say, Four stroke outboards should get at least 2 - 3000 hours, and 1000 - 1500 hours out of two strokes. I've almost got 1100 hours up now on my Suzuki's 300 HP's and still running a treat. Make sure you also keep good clean fuel up to your motors and no water, stuff's injectors real quick,
Cheers Greg

[Reefari]

2 motors definately better than one, but twice the cost and more service costs. Also great for piece of mind if one breaksdown, at least you can get back safely. We travel some large distances of Mackay, up to 50 nautical miles. And you're right more grunt/torque with two if carrying heavy loads, but not much in it for top speed, probably a big single is faster,
Cheers Greg

Como puedo poner a tiempo mi outboard honda 150hp four stroke 150BF year 2006

[Reefari]

Honda are good motors, but also Yamaha and Suzuki, They're generally very reliable now adays, and with 5 year warranties, can't complain. After having four strokes, two strokes will be history, except for maybe smaller tinnies,
cheers Greg

[Reefari]

Good luck and Yamaha are definately one of the best, although you do pay a bit more for quality. Boats aren't cheap, and my outboards do use some fuel believe me,
Cheers Greg

Honda makes the best 4-strokes and Evinrude makes the best 2-strokes. I've got a '78 Evinrude 200 that still runs extremely well. I've heard good things about Suzuki as well, but have never owned one. Yamaha and Mercury motors always had a lot of problems. Mercury engines used to be notorious for seizing after water pump failure.

[Reefari]

Honda definately seem to make quality products, and would rate Suzuki and Yamaha not far behind. Would also look at the new Etec Evinrudes, but haven't owned one,
cheers Greg

@Reefari twin 300hp's sounds very good=D I am "loyal" to Yamaha because I have grown up with Yamaha and I have worked alot with Yamaha, and there is very little problems with them. I live in a very expensive country (Norway), so I will have to save up if I want my own boat with lots of HP =D

[jonrad]

@Reefari Thanks for that 3000 hours? thats heaps, so far its done 420hrs, will keep in mind fishing line etc is the main cause of seal damage and water in the fuel system..anything else that causes water intake?

[jonrad]

@Reefari i have a 225 Yamaha 03 outboard, how many hours you reckon you could get out of it regularly serviced and not flogged?

[biancaify]

I love mustangs I have a 130 hp on my boat
