Does anyone know were to find the engine weights of the various Merc 20hp models? I'm aware Tohatsu is the same engine, I like the tiller features Merc is offering.
Just looked, they list the various models however nothing else is accurate.[url=https://www.tinboats.net/forum/viewtopic.php?p=335947#p335947 said:lckstckn2smknbrls » 18 minutes ago[/url]"]Try NADA.
That is very inaccurate,they have the 20hp suzuki manual start less weight then the 20hp suzuki electric start,huh.[url=https://www.tinboats.net/forum/viewtopic.php?p=336021#p336021 said:sr71 » 06 Dec 2013, 22:13[/url]"]https://www.thehulltruth.com/boating-forum/458401-4-stroke-vs-2-stroke-weight-bar-charts.html
The tiller feature is awesome and that's why my first choice was the merc,but after playing around with the suzuki the 2 shallow water features are just as good but you don't get 5 tilt positions with the ratchet system merc offers,they are both great motors though,can't go wrong with either.[url=https://www.tinboats.net/forum/viewtopic.php?p=335197#p335197 said:airbornemike » 24 Nov 2013, 11:32[/url]"]Does anyone know were to find the engine weights of the various Merc 20hp models?

The graph says it's a 20hp manual start,long shaft which they don't make,They only make a 20hp manual start in a short shaft,go to suzuki's website,they only make a 15"shaft in a manual.It's inaccurate.
Plus if they did have a 20"manual start,the graph says it weighs more then a 15"short shaft electric start which wouldn't be true either.
