Whoa! Everyone seems to be buying new boats, or uprading their motors. I'm feeling decidely modest in my lil' 435
What you getting Ozy? :beer1:
In answer to your question, the yammie would be wayyyyy more expensive to maintain, while the e-tec is relatively new to the market and genuine reviews of it's performance over a long period are few.
I haven't sat down and compared the stat's, but I imagine both motors would be comparable on performance and economy??
