Like you i wanted something reliable and Made In Japan since almost everything we have that needs a motor is has a Honda logo on it...lawnmore,SUV (Pilot),Toyota car (Yaris),Honda pressure washer,Honda camping generator,Yamaha home generator,Honda snow blower...so naturally when came to outboards...well Honda =D> .I know it's a little heavier than other motors but i trust their legendary reliability...i thought having 3 cylinders was good for a smooth and well balanced motor and smooth and silent it is . Yes i did check Yamaha, Tohatsu (EFI !) but i believe that if you treat your fuel with stabilizer of some kind (i use Lucas) and use ethanol free gas (i use only Shell V Power Premium with "0 Ethanol)...so i gravitate towards long term reliability over convenience...like e little lighter motor,no biggie. So whatever you choose ...choose wisely...it's your $$$ !...i myself love a lost art ,the Japanese obsession with quality that still lives on Dan [/QUOTE]
