That's a tough deal. Hope he gets it fixed! Curious why you would jeopardize your events by not running something they can fix for you.

I know of way more issues with brands other then Evinrude on tour last year. Just Sayin. The Sho isn't a great motor either. Most of the fails r temp related.

Post was about help not bashing any brand of motor . He has a new ranger with mercury that was not ready in time before he had to leave for okeechobee. That is why he order a new ranger with mercury but just wasn't ready in time. Lot of the pros running different brands. If anybody knows of any possible help let me know. Thanks
