Just replaced 30 yr old Evinrude 90 with a 4 stroke Merc 90 on a 19.5 Sea Nymph in October. Only have about 20 hrs but I'm hooked for sure. Quiet, fuel injected, all the regular pluses. I went with Merc for the troll control via the smartcraft gauge. Allows you to set engine speed as low as 550 rpm and hold it there, increasing in 10 RPM increments up to 1000. I troll almost exclusively, can run as slow as 1.5 SOG, and plan to ditch my 9.9 kicker. My merc is also a Command Thrust model which means a larger lower unit (from a 150 I think) which provides a larger rudder as well as the ability to swing a larger prop.
