quote Roj115:

Being a die-hard OMC outboard fan I will watch that documentary with great interest. I have a 2010 BRP Evinrude 150 HO eTec on my ski boat and absolutely love it. I think eTecs are the best outboards made right now. Before that, I had a ’74 Johnson 115 on my old ski boat which I sold for good money in 2015 to make way for the new ski boat with the eTec. It broke my heart to sell that old boat and motor. We got them new when I was just 14 and I lovingly maintained it and kept it in top running condition for 40 years. The people who bought it are still running it and it’s still rock solid.

You are soo right, the 74 115 is surely one of the best outboards ever, simple, rugged, reliable, and easy to service….I’m glad you are enjoying the ETEC, sure wish I had more experience with the newer BRP models…
