Any opinions on an 8HP kicker for an 18 Outrage ie Yam High Thrust or just reg 4stroke ?
Thanks,
Woodyt

The F8 and the T8 are both good choices...
Things to consider for the T8...
1. You will need a second battery if you don't already have one.
2. If you want to be able to start the engine from the console, you will need to add a switch up there. You might also consider adding dual controls so you have complete control of the engine from the helm.

The Hi Thrust has AMAZING reverse...probably better than your main motor. Forward gear has plenty of grunt too. I vote T8.
