The motor I would be looking at is the Mercury 150XL. I really like our Suzuki DF70 right now--can anyone give me comments on the Mercury in general or as compared to the Suzuki (other than power)?

It appears that my top speed would be just over 40 and that at roughly the second best MPG efficiency, 4000 RPM/4.7MPG, would cruise at 27--a nice increase from my 20.5 max and 16 cruising.

PS The numbers above are from a test here: https://www.mercurymarine.com/en/us/...units=imperial
