I seen a used boat that has this motor on it. The boat is in very good condition.
Is this year Johnson outboards well built and reliable? Are there any problems with this year and hp outboard?

I had a Johnson 70hp that was a 1981 and it was a very good motor.

If it is a Johnny 50 4 stroke (3 cylinder, made by Suzuki) it is a very good engine.

If it is a 2 cylinder 2 stroke it is one of the best outboards ever. Been around since about 1970. They don't hang around for nearly 40 years without being good.
