I'm preparing to buy a new 25hp outboard motor. Manual start, short shaft for my little river boat - just looking to upgrade from my 9.9 Mercury.
I'll probably buy it from Cabela's, they are quoting $3,397 plus sales tax and a $100 license fee or paperwork fee I'm hoping to get out of.
That said, I am open to buying a yamaha or something else instead.
If I had more time to search I'd like to look and find a better deal used, but I've got 2 little kids and just want to get a super reliable (hence brand new) motor that will run well and last a long time.
Any suggestions on Mercury vs. Yamaha? Also, any thoughts on the price?
Thanks!
