Hi there,

I just picked up a 15' Super Sport Limited this weekend, so now my 13' Sport has a friend.. The lower unit on the Johnson 70 VRO is pretty badly banged up, and rather that replace that I am likely to purchase an ETEC 60. It seems like the ETEC 60 and the Yamaha F70 are the only real choices for this hull these days due to weight limitations. I like the idea of limited maintenance on the ETEC which is what is swaying me from the F70.

Has anyone here put the ETEC 60 on their 15' whaler, and if so how happy are you with the performance? Any propeller suggestions to get me started on the right foot with that hunt? I generally go out with a few people on board, and the kids are young now, but a bit of tubing/skiing/wakeboarding may be in their future.

Thank you.
