I'm looking at a kicker motor for a 19ft Bayliner and was wondering if one of these motors has a better reputation than the other or would be better for my boat

1. 1980 Johnson 7.5hp
2. 1994 Johnson 15hp 2 stroke
3. 1998 Johnson 8hp 4 stroke OMC built

Thanks

Re: Buying a Johnson kicker motor

Any would work well. #1 will be lighter & OK for lakes & relatively calm water. #2 has the most power & would be the best of the three if you run in rough water. #3 might be the choice if your main engine is 4 stroke.

Oh and - - - WELCOME!
