Anyone have a Suzuki DF250 or heard good or bad on them?

for a Bass & Walleye BOATS 250 Shootout. I was pretty impressed with it; it was very smooth, not the fastest of the bunch but certainly, running quality, shifting, punch, idle, and sound were all as good or better than the rest. Not much of a four-stroke fan, but this was a pretty nice outboard.

Considering one for a CC offshore boat. More conserned with longevity and fuel efficiency than all out performance. Want something that sips gas and won't break. That should be easy to find, right? How did it do in gas consumption vs the 2 Strokes?

We only tested one two stroke (Mercury 250xs) against all the other four-strokes. Story will be out this month, let's just say that the two stroke is long from dead!

My old boss had a friend who had one, and he was pretty smitten with it.

If you want gas mileage, I have to encourage you to look at the Opti, my friends 225 sips gas. And it has some beans too. Its a sweet motor.
