Hey guys and gals, I'm looking at possibly getting a new Ranger VS1780, their aluminum deep V boat. The max hp rating is 135 and only Evinrude has that outboard with the 135 HO. I know the Yamaha 115 four stroke is almost bulletproof and would push the boat decently enough. I'm a bit leery of the Evinrude etec due to it's past issues. I would like to max out the horsepower, but if the reliability of the etec is questionable then maybe its not worth it. I mostly bass fish with some walleye fishing mixed in and also have four kids and my wife that like to go out too. Possibly some tubing and/or water skiing in the future with the kids. Any opinions on both outboards and hp difference.? Thanks.
