Anybody know what the power difference is between these motors? I have the Mark 10 already and am looking at the 9.8 (need something more reliable), but I am concerned that the 9.8 might not have the power of the old beast. I ran a Johnson 9.5 on my boat and it didn't come near the Mark 10. Anybody here happen to have done a side-by-side comparison on these?
