| So I Got my first small 15 foot aluminum boat. (Smartliner 150) Its rated to motors of 35 HP.
My problem is that I do not have any experience with anything larger than a Mercury 6hp tiller that we use in our cottage in Sweden, on a old small 13fot row boat.
Never had a problem with the Mercury and they seem popular, but I find it hard to find anything regarding these smaller outboards, vs. the large Verados and the like.
As I like the 6hp Mercury, my first thought was to buy the Mercury F30 ELHPT which is a tiller steer, with power trim/tilt, and the gear shift F/N/R build into the throttle handle.
Are there any one here who use these “smaller” outboards who would like to add any words, if I’m missing something.
