Mark, I\'d go for the \'93 29hp, exactly the same for the price. My second option would be to buy an engine that is more economical than your Johnson, whoever heard of a man using a penis to power a boat. OK apart from that one time.

Hope this helps.

my johnson is a classic, often needs quite a bit of help being started by hand, but wor lass has a canny technique. goes forever after that, but can suddenly lose interest if pushed too fast for too long

If it was me buying Mark , I\'d have a honda or a Yamaha mate if you can stretch to it .

marc I had my boat at one time berthed at amble which is the local agent for tohatsu , was at one point considering a 90 hp but found them at bit basic, I wold seriously consider a 4 stroke cant be beaten for economy and smoothness, I would definatley reccomend Suzuki ran a 70 hp on old boat and have a 6hp as an auxiliary on my present boat, had no trouble with them at all.
