I don't have a engine that big but I bought a 3 cylinder 30 yamaha from dockside marine in bogalusa. I had great service and no issues with my engine. I also have a 115 yamaha to. I like chad and the guys at dockside marine

might want to check into other motors in that horse power range, yamaha fourstroke 150's have been having a lot of break downs, do some research with an outboard mechanic, a mechanic will tell you more about the motor than the salesman will

i highly recommend Bryans Marine in Vidalia. i didnt buy from there but they did an excellent warranty repair for me on my yamaha. i assume they are a dealer of yamaha

My boat

On top

I have two f150 yamahas on my 30 ft crab boat one has over 7000 hrs the other has less than 1000 hrs no trouble lots of power and cheap on fuel

Yamaha is the only way to go and I recommend cypress cove in Slidell

breaux and daigle marine in pierre part. good people! give them a call, 985-252-6411. ask for mr rp breaux!

get a price from the dealer in Houma , a friend just went thru all the dealers price shopping and he says they were over $1,000 less and threw in the digital gauge upgrade free , he said they told him they can sell for less because they sell so many motor to commercial fishermen
