Am wondering if any of the model year Fichts are worth owning, or should you be afraid of all of them? 225hp or 250hp.

Re: Are any of the Fichts worth having?

a buddy of mine has a pairof 225's swears by them. funny thing is he is in the outboard business.Apparently there were some issues that he believes were taken care of.He bought them for a song because the previous owner was in a panic when OMC went under and the guy went for a pair of new yammies,the fichts had no problem at the time,he has run to Bahamas and back many times ,no prob.

I don't have a particular unit in mind, just trying to research the best option. I don't know if there are model years to avoid.
