Believe the issue with the hammer is the ceramic sleeves, too hard to get the rings to seat in!!!
I have a friend that is a local bass guide here in Tennessee. He now has close to if not over 500 hrs. on his new 4 stroke without an issue. He had told me he's owned all makes of engines and the new 4 Stroke Mercury is by far the best one he has owned.
