Yammie, Merc, etec, Honda etc.. they're all solid motors. Had an etec 50hp 2007 two stroke on our old Ramco. Awesome motor, started up first time EVERY time. Like u would leave it for 6 months in winter and not start it once, then first trip out in summer it starts up first turn of the key.. Power was there too. Very quiet as well.

We now have a 90hp two stroke Yamaha 2010 and it always takes a couple of turns to get it started form cold and much louder but very reliable motor nonetheless.

Never have had any troubles with these motors in 8+ years of fishing. Get an etec if you can, they are just awesome from my experience. Any other well known reliable brand will do just fine too, main question you should be asking is what HP
