[QUOTE="amk, post: 376873, member: 13232"] I know the Yamaha 650cc, 701 and 760 have pretty common parts and have metal pump housings which are easy to install. The motors are cheap and abundant. Of course I like them because they are all I have used. Another plus is they don't have any electronics really. They are basic two strokes and you don't have to be a electrical guru or super mechanical to fix them. The mikuni carbs are super easy to rebuild and they are pretty much bullet proof. If you do look into these yamahas I would suggest the 701 62T or the 760 64x they have good horsepower. I have a 650cc everything you would need with intermediate shaft and pump housing but I would imagine it may be a little small for your boat mine was a 1648 and I only got 30mph out of it with 3 people.
