Boat Launching

[roberto6743]

hahaaha i feel like every time i go to the shop i see all the etec's their broke down so its like spend your time on land with etec's MERCURY the best

[Spiritualseeker2007]

What they are trying to say is if you had the etec on you would have known what your doing because you would spend less time on it

[TheTRJG]

lets say the dumb fuck who was i think trying to launch his boat in the ramp and then backed the boat into the dock, if he had the evinrude etec he'd still do the thing. commercial doesn't make any sense

[fishaholic2012]

ahahahahahahahaha i love this commercial

[lexmark136]

I went with the happy medium and got myself an evinrude 3 stroke.

[XXRichieXXrichXX]

that is funny bc i would never take a two stroke bike on a long trip they all ways filing out plugs and my buddys boat with a two stroke evenruge has trubble every time we go out on it

[robm425]

Well I should be clear that I clean the carbs before it goes in the water for the season.

So cleaning carbs once a season seems like reasonable maintence

[XXRichieXXrichXX]

you got your good and bad with both two and four strokes the two stroke has more power but its not as reliable but the four stroke is reliable as an pack mule but it dont have near the power

[robm425]

90hp 2 stroke versus a 90hp 4stroke has the same amount of power.

The other engine for my boat at the time was an 88hp johnson which my friend has on his boat. My top end is higher, only thing is with his is it revs alittle faster.

There is a reason why Coast Guard outboards are honda's

[XXRichieXXrichXX]

if thats the case how come my buddys 75 hp two stroke out ran a 95hp fours stroke and how come a 125cc two stroke bike will out run a 250cc four stroke bike

[robm425]

different hull shapes? The comparison I did was between to Boston Whalers Montauks. Maybe my prop was more solid

My boat has more torque though no trouble pulling up 2 waterskiier where my buddy's two stroke struggles.

The reving faster of the 2 stroke helps in acceleration but not top speed

[XXRichieXXrichXX]

your right it does have alot to do with the hull shape and prop that changes the boats speed and acceleration

[manitoulin001]

there are many variables there that are unacounted for... different hull shape different displacement, different weight, different drag elements, different props. as for the bikes... riders weigh, different driving style, shifting points, different gearing. also two strokes are quick to rev to top rpms and stay there where as a four stroke is more sluggish to get to top rpm simply because of the design of the engine...

[XXRichieXXrichXX]

yeah you got a point there

[corycing]

but the 2 stroke will beat out the fourstroke in a race

[manitoulin001]

they still produce the same amount of power... otherwise they wouldnt be rated the same...hp from the factory... a two stroke pollutes more... a two strokes reliability is based on its components... usually have a smaller piston running at higher rpm to produce the same amount of power which causes alot of friction which is reduce by the oil... if the oil mix is wrong or the oiling components arent working properly the engines performance drops... hence weak reliability... result: siezed engine

[hvegh]

Love the trophy dolphin hanging at the start!

[GordonGriggs]

That guy drive's like me.

[twgswee9]

Love the piece, especially tho 2 lads having a coffee break. Priceless. In regard to the cost of the servicing, the clinical defination of a boat is a hole in the water that you continueally pour money into. Thanks for posting

[hedgehoghunter007]

you took this right off the t.v. i remembe this commercial

[mascott02]

Yea, wait until you get your first service invoice! The salesman will tell you 3 years no service. After that 3 years, the service cost you about $1,500. Keep that E-TEC shit!!!!

[rangerbass519]

e-tec's the best outboard there is. And it only costs 300 dollars to have it serviced.

[awh21]

i hate my suzuki 4 stroke.  japs suck

[jujujus2]

i still like my merc 90 4 stroke better than an etec

[ugosage]

yo man prety cool

[ugosage]

realy fuuny

[2wiz4u]

that looks like my stepmom trying to put the boat into black river....lol

[ROUSH616172699]

They still have the straps on the boat!

[dodge69874]

yea some people just suck at backing up boats. e-tecs are nice but expensive. and i think the repairs will be just as expensive after those 3 years.

[lakedudegtx]

that is my mom backing up the boat

[RobertGary1]

Funny. They should also mention that 2 strokes are banned in many places in the US.

[fishin10115]

The new E-Tecs meet all the emission standards.

[RobertGary1]

Is that true? In California most large lakes just say "2 strokes are prohibited". Are you saying there are some that are exempt?

[baconbiscut]

All two strokes without DFI direct fuel injection

[BEJAN92]

cool
