My wife loves the Water Witch...she wants one to replace her "turbo-boost" broom!! (but she said it needs to be AT LEAST 250HP)

Yes, that's a direct quote - those of you who got to know her at the meet a few years ago will understand...   ;)

I like this one The 150 HO in the black color would look sick on G/C's silver metal flake.

I like this one it is the same motor detuned to a 135, I think that would look good on the back of my CVX16.

I've had a white motor for years on my cvx16 and a black one on my V156. I like black better. However white is more visible if you are on the lake motoring around.

I've had black, white and gray ...
White shows water scum lines.
Black shows hard water spots.
Gray shows both !

My favorite is the Yamaha V-Max motors ...

I got all the parts back in it a couple of weeks ago, had it out tonight for the second time, seems to be running like a champ.  We went to Pawnee and with only about 4 boats on the lake I nearly had a head on with a Jet ski, scared the heck out of me.  Boating was a lot more fun without  jet ski doing circles everywhere...

After tonight may need to reconsider this whole boating thing...

We just got in our first E-Tec G2 at the shop, a 250. Talk about an imposing looking beast.
