I hear good things about Yamah
I hear good things about Yamaha motors but my local boat repair/shade tree type guy said that it is hard to work on them without the special test equipment that diagnoses/reads the engine codes (may be that he's just not very sharp ha/ha). Whatever engine I get I would prefer to get the shop manual and be able to do maintenance on it myself.
Is this true about Yamaha's? If it is true are they any more complicated than a newer Johnson/Mercury? Is this just a new motor technology thing or a Yammie thing.
Thanks guys. Any opionions on Yamaha performance/reputation would be appreciated.
