We are buying a 1995 Suncruiser 24' with 115 Evinrude motor tomorrow ( if it passes our inspection and test ride). Never owned a boat before. Any advise or concerns with the brands?

Is the motor and Evinrude "Ficht Injection" motor? If it is it is no big deal, but I have owned a couple of those motors, and only had one problem that required a computer board replacement ($1500).

Other than that, they are as good as any other motor of that age (10 years plus). Good luck with your new boat, and post us some pictures!
