Yams are a pretty good motor these days
Yup - I don't have any pics going 30- at that speed one hand is hanging on and the other is on the tiller. But here is one from an early season trip...and I am going upstream...


My boat in my profile pic has a 115 Merc 4 stroke on it. Its a 2012 model so its the larger one - they came out with a more compact version I think right after that year model. It has been trouble free and very low hours -I mainly troll off the electric..and since I bought the river boat a few years back it has mainly been a garage queen. But its a good boat/motor set up and I have no reason to sell it. It maxes out about 45 by myself - which is plenty fast for me - generally run around 30 anyway.. I don't do the tournament thing so speed not really an issue anyway.
