We have Mercury 115 Command Thrusts in stock at Stevens Marine. With that you get the robust 2.1 liter displacement with the 150 lower unit/prop. With Mercury you don’t compromise on weight to get displacement.
We offer the five years of warranty on Mercs year around but that’s not all dealers.
Our pricing also tends to be very competitive because of the volume we do. Controls, cables and prop are free right now.
Even though they all say 115 on the back, performance will not be equal with the variance in displacement, smaller props, etc.
All EFI four strokes in this category are rather reliable these days.
I really do think Mercury does the best job with corrosion resistance these days.
It really comes down to splitting hairs on some of these. But Hondas are too heavy to even be in conversation, I think. Suzuki and Tohatsu seem fine but depending on where you are, parts and service can be scarce because overall market share and dealer/service network is limited. That would leave Yamaha for me and I think the Mercury with 5 years of warranty and 2.1 Liter for less weight than the Yamaha 1.8 liter with 3 years of warranty (Mercury probably also less money) are all factors in why you see a ton of the Merc’s out there. Plus you can get a matching EFI kicker.
Yes, I sell them so this is rather biased. But also mostly just facts. Shoot me a PM if you want to talk pricing and availability.
