    20mercman that is the other motor I was thinking of. Since I am not a Merc guy I didn’t bring it up. It was a totally misunderstood motor. Mercs were alway known for high RPM! This motor came out with low ports & needed to top out at 5000 RPM like the OMC 85. Guys here in TN (bass boaters) just never could except either engine because they wouldn’t scream.
    They were both good realiable motors you could count on for a GREAT day of fishing or boating. I thought that’s what it was all about. Other models were built for racing.
