Own one. Not wet at all. Hondas are great, but no dealers or service centers near here. Personally, I'd go with Yamaha or Zuke. And yes, the 28 is totally awesome.

And I've only seen them with etecs. So it looks like you are not stuck with any one manufacturer which is great. They are definitely sweet boats.

what a nice looking boat!

fishcop--price with 150s/moderate options/no trailer--mid 60s. price with 200s/full regalia/10K lb trailer--80ish

with no marriage to a motor maker, you can pretty much rig with whatever you want. lots of e-tecs in the 2004 and 2005s as brp was a big supporter last year. looks like zuke is romancing them some this year so more with that power are probably to be seen the rest of this year, i expect.
