Wanted information on Outboards
Can someone please help by providing some current US prices (normal
retail) for 15 hp short shaft outboards.
Also I remember finding some fuel usage figures in here somewhere but
now can't find them.
Thanks in advance

I can now add some reasons for my request. I have bought a 3.4m
inflatable and had planned to use the Yamaha 8hp from my Neolex 25
(25ft Trailer Sailer).
The 8 goes really well and works well with the inflatable however I
have a "speedfreak" daughter. The son is rather keen on speed as well.
I have the chance of someone buying a motor in the US before they
return soon.
The NZ cost are: Yamaha 15 NZ$2600 about US$1400
Johnson 15 NZ$2400 about US$1310
Any help appreciated.

I had a fairly old Honda 7.5 HP for years. It ran well, was very
reliable, and didn't corrode. So my experience is positive. I also
acquired a Yamaha 9.9 recently. It was much newer than the Honda. It
also runs well but the electronic ignition let me down recently. Honda
outboards are favourites with scuba clubs in the UK.
