I apologize for a possibly simple question. I know very little about Mercury motors, but I'll be buying a new to me rig in the next couple months so its time to learn.
My plan is to pay cash and keep it under $30k, 19'-20' with a 225 or 250. that puts me in the '05-'11ish year model range dependent on brand and accessories. Most have a Mercury or Yamaha HPDI
Educate me on Mercury's in that range and anything to look out for specifically. I know there is a designation change from Optimax to Optimax ProXS in that time frame but don't know what that entails.
