"If I had my choice it would be the OptiMax. The opti gets great gas mileage when its running with no problems. Its also a very reliable motor,I've only replaced one powerhead due to a very weird crank breaking issue. Most of the work I do is maintenance on them. Got customers with Optis that have 500+ hrs. on them and no problems. One last thing I work for a boat dealer in San Antonio (Authorized Merc/Mercruiser dealer) Would be glad to look at your motor and verify it is in fact DEAD."
