Aerotec engine upgrade: advice needed
I'm looking to upgrade the outboard on my Aerotec 380.
Current: Mercury 15hp 2-stroke.
Want: 25hp 2 or 4 stroke, light weight, 2000-2010-ish, budget 2000eu.

Advice welcome. Thanks!

Probably two choices really - staying with 2 stroke and go for a 25 (Mariner/Mercury/Yam) or go four stroke Suzuki DF 20. I think a 4 stroke 25 will be too much of a lump.

I think you're right, 4 stroke will be to heavy. Any recmommendations on fuel injected 2 strokes?
