Sorry didn't see our post untill tonight.
I have a 175 yammy.
Fitted to yammy southwind
goes like the bluejeesus


How can I help?

Just after some info on how you find the engine & what sort of fuel economy you get out of it.

Havn't had any problems yet
service it every year
replace batteries every 2 years
motor is 11 yrs old now
400 + hrs
pushing a southwind sf20
does a full day from Scarborough to tempest and all running around the reef for around $120 fuel
have not bothered measuring consumption but other club members say it is better than they get with smaller motors.fuel consumption can be greatly effected by how you trim and run the motor also.
When I feel I need to will I put another Yammy on?

You bet!
