    Counter Rotating vs Non-Counter Rotating Twins

    no, I never operated a boat with twin engine non counter rotating props. not sure how drastic a difference it would be and was wondering if trim tabs would negate the issue

    I hear you......thanks for that and following me! I have been wanting to upgrade and at the moment this seems like the best deal.

    I understand it's an Evinrude not a Johnson. Just wondering if it's considered an E-TEC, that's all. Is an E-TEC not considered an Evinrude?
