Hey guys Ive got a chance to trade my boat. The boat i will be trading for has a 2004 225 Opti. on it. Because I dont know much about Mercury motors Im just wondering if that is a good motor. The boat I may be trading has a 225 efi 2002, But that is the first Mercury Ive owned and I havent had it very long. I was thanking thanking that the Opti Max came out around 2003 or so but im not for sure. Like I said Im just wondering if this is a good motor and when i ask this I am talking about new to production did they have all the bugs worked out and so forth. Thanks for any replies.
