I agree with previous posts.

Also, look for the lightest and highest horsepower motor you can afford. Most are adding years to their warranties since most will never need warranty repair, they have become very good all around. I buy into the theory a more powerful motor ran easier over time may last longer and possibly burn less fuel than a smaller motor ran hard. Especially if this is going to be a family boat and watersports are in your future.

I too like to keep what I buy, Triumph is very user friendly to work on and/or do add-on modifications as you can tell from the "pictures" section.

We also have a great website full of helpful owners many whom have "been there and done that" and can lend a hand if you ask.

Good Luck on your decision, Molar
