    I know one of the best yamaha mechanics in the southeast, we have him do our engine work. He works with my sisters dad just cross the border into GA at a contender dealership. Its never stranded us, but we are about to have to replace the fuel pump.

    We run a 200 HPDI (high pressure direct injection) yamaha. Fucker flys. 2 stroke tho so we do go thru some oil.

    4 strokes are heavier for equivalent HP, so its a trade off, they are much quieter, and has a closed oil loop.

    if you're looking at used boats of that size, outboards are always a safer, and usually cheaper way to go. both from an initial cost standpoint, and as far as refurb and maintenance goes.

    I dont have a smart phone, and anyways, we cannot have our phones on us on the floor. We handle sensitive account info for business accounts so electronic devices are a no-no.

    But I may be getting an Iphone 3gs and a plan because I get a discount through the company I am with now.

    And I can get an Iphone 3gs for .99 cents...vs $199 for an I phone 4.

    Was about to change my oil today to finish up my 30k service and noticed what I think is the infamous timing cover leak. Good thing I'm still under warranty, made an appointment next fri at Dmaus for the leak and my intermittent blower motor whine.
