          I had Suzuki and the guy that bought it from me got screwed on the warranty. Seemed under powered to me.. yamaha makes a good motor.. honestly I'd go with whoever offers the longest warranty and which ever mechanic is closer..

                Both solid, have owned more than one of both brands. If warranty periods were the same, dont hesitate save the $$ and go suzuki If for some reason the Yamaha is offering a much longer warranty then consider what the piece of mind is worth to you, especially if you are going to put a bunch of hours on the boat.

                  I have been told that Yamaha has a 3 year warranty and then I can purchase a YES (Yamaha Extended Service) contract for 3 more years. Have been told that the YES warranty varies on the coverage.

                  Suzuki has a 3 year warranty and then another 3 year, prorated warranty that is administered by a 3rd party. I have also seen that Suzuki has a 5 year warranty. I dont really know and I have done my research online on both models but cant seem to get a good answer. And the dealer is telling me 2 different things on the motors.

                        I had a bass boat with a Suzuki and loved it. I could run around a lake all day and use 4 or 5 gallons of gas.

                          If its rated for it I'd hang a plain 200 yammy 4 stroke.

                            Not going on a bass boat. On a Tritoon for the family.
