[QUOTE="FuzzyGrub, post: 523838, member: 3438"] Do you have a link to the specific boat/model? Sounds like it is designed for a jet, just wanted to see if they moved the console forward for better weight distribution. We have been running a 17’ G3 with a Yamaha 90/65 and have been very happy. I do see a few 16’ers with 60/40s. I see more with Mercury, but wouldn’t put much on that. The Merc 60hp has been around quite a while, not sure why the dealer would push for the 60 Yamaha. I assume they are a servicing dealer for both. What reason did they give? These days, it seems like all the boat mfg lock in with one brand, so surprised they offered both. [/QUOTE]
