I am new to motor boating and am looking to buy a 24' deck boat that has a 1997 Evinrude 225 with around 100 hours. A couple of people have warned me that:<br /><br />1. Evinrude was having problems with quality control in the late 90s.<br /><br />2. A six year old engine with so few hours is in some ways more risky than a motor with more hours.<br /><br />I would appreciate your thoughts.
