How much does the physical appearance of a motor enter into the equation when it comes to the purchase of it? Is it something to take pride in or just something at the back to push the boat around?
A guy (dealer employee) on another website mentions that the Yamaha F115 is hammering the sales of comparable HP size Etecs. Is it because of the looks of the Etec V4 configuration or something else? I personally have thought the V4 configuration to be an odd looking duck, even in the Yamaha brand. Kinda squatty body looking. The I4 configuration looks more streamlined and aesthetic IMO.
I won't get into the looks of the G2 Etec's. Just not to my liking. But then the Yamaha motors look a bit Darth Vaderish as well.
