    They are going to start painting their motors black so people will actually buy them.

    When you need a tow from the guy with a Yamaha, be sure to point out the ricer comment.

    It does not sound like there is a new motor coming but I could be wrong. If you listen closely to Brandon’s post he says “if you are a tournament angler and own a Yamaha big things are coming”. To me that sounds more like a tournament incentive program or something else not a new motor.

    They could also be extending warranties. That would be great for the weekend angler and all the pontoon boat customers.

    I try to drive as if my 16 year old Grandson is following me

    He specifically talks about “tournament anglers”. Guessing it’s an incentive program

    Ive had 6 mercurys since 1996 EFI / DFI Opti never one issue and all of them have had well into high hours and ran hard, my next boat will be my last and I don't care if it has a mercury or Yamaha both great engines and companies.
