Should I buy early 90's Nissan 18hp or 93 Mariner 15hp? The Nissan is in great shape and was used as a kicker in fresh water whole life and apparently very fast. It starts first pull and has recent tune-up, carb work, fuel pump and leg oil. The Mariner has been stored and never used, I know it's hard to believe but it has never been mounted on a boat. The Mariner is a couple of hundred dollars more and both are 2 stroke short shafts tillers. I will be mounting them on my very light weight 14' harbercraft aluminum boat. I will be using them for lake fishing and dropping off crab nets. Which do you think I should get and what are the pros and cons of each. Anyone also know the weight of the Mariner, can both be used in sea water and reliability of both motors and parts availability? Thanks
