Mercury's are great for reliability. Maybe the older ones are shit, but the new ones are very good, and I have not heard any horror stories or complaints about them.
That picture I posted is the next boat we're getting. I rock a Yamaha Vmax 250 HPDI on the flats boat, and it has yet to let us down...almost 700 hours on it, and it still runs like a ***** ape and puts my Lake and Bay to 74mph.

I actually have found it the complete opposite....the older mercs like prob low 90s generation were a lot more reliable then the new ones. mercury has always had the reputation of being performance engines and not reliable engines...which is why they are used in racing conditions because you can get power out of them. Everyone has their own opinion, Im just speaking from what I've experienced and heard over the past 12 years.

I love me some yamaha though...especially the new 400hp v8 //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crazy.gif.c13912c32de98515d3142759a824dae7.gif

If one where to get into fishing, when is the opportune season? I figure it is starting to get cold now. I live in TN.

Well, TN is no where close to the ocean. I will be fishing on a lake.

Where in TN? We go fishin all the time. Usually up to Kentucky lake. The best time I think is spring, and then you can fish in summer.

I live right on the water, but dont care for fishing to much...

Fishing and golf are mainly good for getting a tan and getting drunk. at least golf you get some exercise with it

When I go out on the boat I just throw the line in the water without bait to not feel left out, open a beer and bask in the sun

To go fishing you have to know what your doing, which is rarely the case I've come to find out.

I love to fish. One of the things i miss about living in the Midwest. Not to many lakes in GA and the ones there barely have water in them.
