John Greviskis Throws Evinrude Under the Bus

Just watched Ship Shape TV. I know the host shills for his sponsors but he really trashed Evinrude in his latest episode. Said the E-TEC would never run right and left him stranded many times so he is recovering [re-powering?] with Yamaha. I thought it was very unprofessional.

18 Dauntless, Suzuki 140-HP

There is a chance my 18-year-old Evinrude 150-HP outboard engine has a lower unit problem. I won't know if the problem is major or not for a couple of weeks, but, just in case it is major, I am thinking ahead if I decide I want to repower.
