If price is not a big facture as long as it is a good product which one would you choose. Boat in question is 2015 carolina skiff 238 dlv. Thanks for yalls in put
This is a trick question, right? :smt005
YAMMY, YAMMY, YAMMY.

We see a lot of tow boats pulling in folks in the river at C-Quarters. Most of the time it is not a Yammy. Enough said! :-D

Been running Mercury and just repowered with another. The guy I trust (and 5 miles from my house) is a Mercury dealer and repair shop. I would probably pick a new Yamaha though as my first choice if there were 2 authorized repair shops near me that I liked. Most trouble free motor I ever owned was a Yamaha. With that being said, having to run to Tally for repairs would make me choose a Mercury at the current time as I prefer dealing with a person over a company. Ford over Chevy.
