BoxMN Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 I know both the Yamie T60 and Merc Bigfoot 60 are good motors for pontoon, and I like both brands. Price is pretty close, with Merc cheaper. My bias is toward Mercs due to our good luck with them in past 30 years, but any of you guys who work on them regularly have any known items for either of them? Will go onto pontoon. My guess is that these motors are not in for much more than service, but I never know... Don't care about resale, will keep it forever most likely, and performance in this situation doesnt' matter, both are high thrust models and will work fine. Thanks for any info.

marine_man Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 I've always been a Yamaha guy.. so that would be my preference. I'm not aware of any "known" issues on either.marine_man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoxMN Posted February 21, 2012 Author Share Posted February 21, 2012 Thanks MM. I am guessing from the response that these motors are both good contenders for my usage. The price will probably dictate which I get, and that looks like Merc so far. Appreciate the info! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
