    Evinrude is done now. Bit of a shame. Ive been running mine for about 14 years . Only one problem...the emm blew about 3 years ago. No other issues, so its been reliable.

      Used to be OMC but wow we had 2 70 VROs and they lasted for years and we use them daily for years and years that's MADE IN USA now BRP they died out, I WOULD LOVE TO USE A MADE IN USA PRODUCT because that is money in another Americans pocket everytime it starts, I miss old school MADE IN USA 🇺🇸 products because they used to care for them, you see the pride in the products made so they are built to outlast your lifetime I miss that.

      When BRP took over OMC they had Suzuki make 4 stroke outboards which were sold under the Johnson name. They were only sold for 5 years before being discontinued. Keep in mind that the entire sales pitch of Evinrude was that they were two strokes.

    1. You dont need to ruin a perfectly fine Mercury motor...
    2. I don't doubt that a 2-stroke has a better torque than a 4-stroke, but usually US advertise is not to be trusted. A third party test would be much better.
    3. The dumbest thing that has happened in the engine world the last decade is shutting down Evinrude. These motors where on the top 3 worldwide. Such a shame.

      you missed the whole point didnt you? Merc CLAIMES their 4 stroke had 2 stroke power, torque etc. How about the fact that etec was also quieter, better fuel econ0omy and better emissions? 4 stroke shoulda won all of that yet did not.
