I am looking for a smooth idling, smooth running motor for my fixed up 13'
Sovereign so I can take her sailing out the inlet and offshore again.

I would like to hear from you guys owning the 5HP Nissan 4 stroke (on sale at
BoatUS for 995) on reliability, starting ease, shake at idle and smoothness.
I'm sure the group in general would love to get an idea...

Any E/J 4hp users want to add comments?

the Nisssan weights in at 55 lbs and the E/J 4hp at 38 lbs. Nissan has 2yr.
wty and E/J has a 1 year.

Best
SF
