It's hard to imagine any problems with a Honda outboard.
Just keep in mind maintenance on the four stroke is a little more than a comparable 2 stroke.
Every one says 4 strokes are quieter,smoother, nicer to troll with and generally heavier.
i own a year 2000 bf 25......i run it all morning and into the night all the time.... and have absolutely zero probs........ honda is said to be the best outboard company...... and all around motor co.
id definately take that trade...... big step up!!!!
