Hi,
I have inquired with a company on a new Tohatsu 9.8 two stroke. They offer me a new
Mercury 9.9 two stroke instead.
As the Tohatsu has a very good reputation for being super robust and easy to fix I was wondering if the
Mercury is technically the same. Rumours say Mercuries of that size are rebranded Tohatsu.
If the latter is the case, the Mercury would be just as good as the Tohatsu, no?
Background, we are cruising in areas where most people use two strokes so the mechanics are used to them and spares are easier to get.
