    Gotcha. Surprised they aren’t doing anything sooner with Yamaha running 6 years right now.

    There are a few boats being ordered right now, but that’s 1/10th of what will be ordered in Jan/Feb, if that. A promotion right now would decrease the impact of a promotion that might be coming in a few months, plus costing advertising dollars hard to recoup in a weak selling window. It’s puzzling/ironic that Yamaha would be bothering to promote at present, given the current dearth of customer orders and their low inventory of bass-boat engines.

    Evinrude does not disclose upcoming promos, even to their dealers, until a day or two before they commence.

    Evinrude website now shows a boat show season event. Shows a 7 year warranty and a 2K rebate on select models. Anyone have any access what models that rebate might be on?

    Thanks!

    I love the smell of 2-stroke in the morning....but I certainly don't get it from my ETEC. It burns too clean for that. I make sure I tie up next to the guys running an old Merc EFI or Yamaha so I can get my fix.

    The science (and romance) of two-stroke exhaust smell.

    Rich Lee

    All it takes is one whiff. It could be an old dirt bike starting up fresh out of storage or a vintage scooter trundling past. No matter. As soon as two-stroke exhaust hits your nose, it splits your face into a big, toothy smile. The stuff literally gets under your skin.
    But what are you actually smelling? And why is it so evocative?
    From a physiological standpoint, the answer is straightforward. Olfaction, the process of smelling, is closely tied to emotion and associative learning. And, unlike our other senses, it’s wired directly into the limbic system; before you even identify a smell, the olfactory bulb has already triggered a memory and the feeling attached to it, a true primal reaction. So, if you grew up around motorcycles, your brain might associate two-stroke with the warmth of family, the pride of winning a race, or the satisfaction of tuning a carb. Getting a snoutful of the stuff can be comforting on a neural level.
    But there might be more to the magic of two-stroke’s distinct scent. So says Kelly Jones, the New York-based perfumer behind Kelly + Jones, an experimental fragrance line stocked at stores including Urban Outfitters and Garmentory. Asked to analyze burning synthetic two-stroke for Motorcyclist, her trained nose picked up an array of smells, including benzoin and balsam (tree resins), cade oil (a species of juniper), and a hint of patchouli (yes, patchouli). To Jones, the underlying character here was revealing. She notes that tree resins represented the very first perfumes, tracing back to ancient civilizations. Benzoins and balsams have long been used to make incense, and cade oil is a known antiseptic.
    Altogether, she describes the two-stroke fragrance profile as ancestral, ritualistic, ceremonial, and medicinal.
    “In a way, this scent is actually very human,” she says. “There’s a term we use in perfumery, animalic, to describe musk. And this one’s a little dirty, isn’t it? There’s an element of the forbidden. That’s sexy. People have always been attracted to those smells. They always will be.”

    That's a good read 'Hoss.... and to help the guys with the DFI and ETEC's turn the rear of the boat into the wind....you'll get a whiff of that smell without the smoke...

    Yeah, I hate I missed out on the 10 year but my engine blew in April and that promotion was over in March. 7 yrs is still an awesome warranty.

    I found a new leftover 2018 150 HO that will be getting shipped to my local dealer next week for installation. Can’t wait to get it on the water and see how my 364 Ranger performs. Being boatless for 8 months has been awful.
