Who runs what motor?

200 HP Mercury Carbed outboard on 2002 Cape Horn Bay 22'.
As for being a carbed motor, it so far (been out twice, once last sept, and again in March.) it starts right up on cold start. We cranked it up on first try after sitting for 5+ months.
Reason for 2 stroke, its what was on the boat when we bought it.

JOHNY-RUDE
I CURRENTLY HAVE 2-40, 1-150, 1-33, 1-50, 1-5 1/2, 2-3 1/2 . 1-85 JOHNSON OR EVINRUDE. I HAVE ONLY HAD ONE MERCURY, IT WAS A 78 MODEL AND I BELIEVE TURNED OUT 75 H.P. , IT WOULD RUN LIKE A SCALDED DOG, BUT DO NOT EVER TURN IT OFF, IT WOULD NOT START UNTILL THE ENGINE HAD COOLED DOWN COMPLETELY. ALL OF THE OMC ENGINES I HAVE OWNED , AND I HAVE OWNED MANY, ALLWAYS RAN GREAT. THE 33 THAT I HAVE IS A 1949 YEAR MODEL AND IT PROBABLY HAS 3-4,000 HOURS ON IT, SHE IS GETTING TIRED LIKE ME JUST WORE OUT, STILL RUNS GREAT BUT HAS A SLIGHT ROD KNOCK ON THE BOTTOM PISTON, I HARDLY USE HER ANYMORE AND I AM TOO OLD TO REBUILD ANOTHER ENGINE. I JUST LIKE TO GO OUT TO THE SHOP AND LOOK AT HER EVERY NOW AND THEN. MANY GREAT MEMORIES WITH THAT BOAT. THE BOAT IS A LAP STRAKE LARSON ALSO 1949.

We got all 2 strokes 1-200 Suk (Great motor even at 12 years old) 1-70 yammie (1st Yamaha that we had and it sure has set the bar high) then there is old faithful 1988 30 hp Johnson she is always ready to go when you are. I've also had a 89 merc 150 on a bass boat. Man we would baby that thing and it still would tear up I think that when I sold that boat the whole thing had been rebuilt. I think that Merc has improved tons since 89 though but it still left an bad taste in my mouth.
Less Work! More Fishing!
