Hey everyone, Im new here. I've been looking for a site with a forum that is geared towards boating. I am an avid fisherman but sometimes I think I enjoy messing with the boat more than actually fishing on it!

Anyway, I am purchasing a 2003 Angler center console with a 2003 Johnson 90 2 stroke. I am used to the older omc motors...You know, the "hickup", "choker and smoker" etc, etc. I know this still isnt a computer controlled fuel injected engine but what should I expect from this engine? Will it most likely still be a pain to start like my old engines? Also,...Im taking it for a test run today but I noticed that the lower unit has been painted over! Why?...could something have happened? Is it just the boat yard doing annual touch up? We'll see Anyway any info for a boat owner finally stepping up to a boat of modern times would be greatly appreciated.

Re: hello!

a 2003 is not broken in good yet. the lower has probably been beached, or they mine is missing paint. or change for some reason.. ask the question when testing. get aleast a 30 day full warranty from the dealer.
