Evinrude New designed outboards...

I do like that Evinrude is trying to improve the outboard industry instead of making the same stuff every year like the others.

How is that? All other company's are making big changes. Evinrude has always been playing catch up. Electronics has always been their problem. Before BRP took over alot of people called OMC outdated motor company. For the people that own them and love them....be glad you do not have trouble with them. The facts are out there. I am finally getting rid of my evinrude for a yamaha 2 smoke. Can't wait to take it off next week. When it comes to reliability you can't beat the jap motors.

In APBA racing circles, we called the OMC's either OMSleazy's, or Waukegan Shakers Only outboard in APBA that would absolutely rattle itself totally apart, bolts laying in the pan. That is why in APBA racing, the SST60 and the SST45 Class, Rule #1: It must be an Evinrude or Johnson, no other brands may compete.
I wonder why they made that rule Oh yea, that's so they can say OMC has ruled those classes No competition.
In Formula 50, ANY manufacturers outboard of 45 cubic inches or less, OMC lasted 2 races, Mercury lasted 1 race. Both years of approved Formula 50, US1 and US2 for both years were Tohatsu's, EVERY APBA World Speed Record for Formula 50 was set by Tohatsu. Remember, ALL brands could compete.
Now tohatsu does not build a 2 stroke, talk about change.
Happy Boating
