[QUOTE="typed by ben, post: 338705, member: 11717"] i have an electric start evinrude- first motor i ever bought that wasnt part of a boat package. i looked at it like this: electric start positives: 1. if i get disabled in an accident on the water to where i cant use my arms or legs, i will want a push button start to try to get to safety 2. electric start is a little more luxurious electric start negatives: 1. battery weight 2. no rope start to fall back on if the battery dies or the starter motor takes a dump if i could go back i probably would have waited for a pull start version of the same engine to pop up on account of those two negatives. the electric start option on my motor means i have to have yet another battery in the rear in addition to the two that are already up front.
