Is a 1993 Mariner 15hp 2 stroke ss the exact same as a 1993 Mercury 15hp 2 stroke ss? I'm new to boating and I'm looking for a motor for my 14' harbercraft alum boat 15" transom (very light weight). I see online that some Mariner outboards are Yamaha's, Tohatsu's and Mercs. Who makes the 93 15hp 2s ss? From the picture it looks very similar to the Mercury but I don't know for sure. I just want to make sure getting parts is easy and that parts are still readily available. Are these motor very reliable? I trying to choose between this Mariner and a 18hp early 90's Nissan 2s ss which is in good shape. The Mariner has never been used and been in storage since new and never mounted on a boat. Thx
