    jet outboard

    i was looking on the internet and doing more researching and got alittle curious and i found something out that a yamaha 2001 40hp jet ( not sure if its a 40/30 or 60/40) 2 stroke are the same displacement, bore and stroke as the 50/35 yamaha jets

    well around my area the only 50/35s that ive seen in a 50 mile radius are 4 stroke hondas. i havent seen a yammi 50/35 in action. their are plenty of merc 60/40 2 strokes around that run id say about the 25-30 mph range on different length boats. their is a $1500 price between them. the yammi...

    and thats why i prefer 2 over 4 strokes. well if they will be close in performance then from my first hand knowledge to me yamaha jet lower units seems easier to work on then mercs. i use to own a 95 xpress h51 with a 95 90/65 jet on it had to sell it because i got laid off acouple of years ago...

    jet outboard

    the only reason i asked about the performance is because the yammi 50/35 displacement is 43 and the merc is 59 thats why i was thinking with the merc weighting more it would probably equal out with speed and performance. i prefer 2 strokes. i only take one other guy with me in my boat because...

    jet outboard

    hi all! my question is what is the performance difference between a yamaha 50/35 and a mercury 60/40 jet. both outboards are 2 strokes. the yamaha 50/35 give or take is 80lbs lighter then the merc 60/40. the motor will be going on a 1992 tracker pro 16. thank you
