Had the privilege of helping a boater today..........nice little aluminum boat. Here's the best part......he didn't make it 200 yrds from the launch when his Yamaha 4 stroke 90 caught on fire and died..........

I feel bad for the fella, but couldn't help thinking of you ASR as I towed him in with my merc.........

Well it should since you had it rebuilt after only 49 hours.....Hope it last you to at least 100 hours this time... Good luck...

Funny part is you created this thread acting like you had to tow me one time which we know both now I never had to be towed in......I do not understand your point for this thread...

I had a 200 Mercury for 14 years with hardly any problems.
I am on my first Yamaha with just around 90 hours or so.
Just hope it lasts as long as the Mercury. Then I will be
happy.
