[QUOTE="Sea Antsy, post: 503015, member: 33043"] I agree with ya bro..we are in the same boat so to speak... here is another consideration... 2cyl vs 1 cyl... I have a 6hp Merc 4stroke.. it's a very large single cyll. and its noisy, and it vibrates the transom and the whole tinny at any rpm.. but at slow trolling speeds, or idle, it's especially noticeable.. and its tricky to idle down slow enough to keep it tickin over...I back troll a lot to slow my drift.. then there is the weight .. and manageability by one olde guy.. lots of mature 6hp 2stroke 2 cyll 'rude/jonny's out there fer cheaper and the yammies even up to 8hp 2stokes are sweet and about the same weight.
