35GTR or 25GTR?
So with our mudbuddy stolen I'm buying a Gator Tail now sooner than I thought. I'm torn between the 35hp and the new Subaru 25hp EFI. The only reason that I'm considering the 25hp is the EFI. Maybe it's me but you don't seem to hear as many issues with motors and ethanol on the EFI outboards and I won't miss having to warm up a carbed motor on those cold mornings. We don't have a long run at my duck leases and I will be keeping my 25hp Tohatsu for fishing. The gator tail will sit in the shop outside of gator and duck seasons. I'll be putting this on my 16x42 Southfork tunnel which I realize is less than ideal for a surface drive however it's what I have so it's what I'll be using. Am I stupid for considering going with less power. My concern would be pushing the boat full of gators. I know with the EFI atvs they seem to be more powerful along with better throttle response than the same size carbed motor. Why can't Gator Tail go to EFI on the 35's like Prodrive?
