[QUOTE="turbotodd, post: 461885, member: 7376"] some of the newer EFI manual start motors can honestly be easily changed to electric start. HOWEVER...what is the cost of doing it, and does the additional cost make it prohibitive? I do not know. I have not priced the process. I do know that yamaha offers an electric start conversion kit for the F9.9 now, right from Yamaha so you know it's all the right stuff. I want to say that it's about $500 but could be wrong. I'd certainly like to have electric start though. That would be #1 on the list, especially after having several rope start motors, including a mid 80's Evinrude 9.9 that was supposedly real easy to start. It did start good, but it took a LOT more effort than this 25 yamaha I have now, and the 25 I had before it as well. [/QUOTE]
