Re: Force Engines - Why such a bad reputation
bayliner's bad rep comes in part by the guttless turds they put on the back of them. its a fact that a force comes nowhere near a johnson or evinrude in power, just look at iboats and check out the prop finder. for example a 85mod force 50hp has up to i think 15pitch prop, then check out 85mod evinrude 50hp, the prop pitch goes up to 19p. the reason being is a force 50 cant turn a 19pitch prop without severly lugging. so force motors are inferior and bayliner put them on everything! which makes bayliners somewhat inferior. i have a bayliner capri and i like it alot, but i had to toss the force, and get an evinrude before i liked the boat.
