My pops was a old school high performance geek so this stuff is like watching college football commentators to me. I love it. So much I disagree, agree, and everything in between. Not in a “I know everything and you suck” way but it’s just stuff we never get to talk about as fishermen that I wanna talk about.
Hey someone's gotta say it right? Haha...We're glad ya like the content and we pride ourselves on giving the people our honest opinion on what we've seen over the years that we've been in the game. Keep on making your great content and let's collab in the future!
@@TeamMarineService would love to see this collab!
@@tylerk7572 15 Thumbs up to this and we'll contact B.Lat! 👍🏻
I’d love to see a brand battle on 50-115 horse motors! Make it happen
Reliability aside, what about normal cost of ownership (normal maintenance and parts)?
I'd love to see a 115 comparison!
I've owned 6 different mercury outboards from optimax / fourstroke / verado, I now own a Suzuki 250 on a ranger 620....I will never own another Merc unless someting drastic happens, The Suzuki does everything better and it really does hang with the Merc for performance and I think in some cases even out performs the Merc. The fuel mileage isn't even close i sometimes forget to look at the fuel gauge now that in running a Suzuki. I knew nothing about Suzuki's when I bought the boat and after 210hrs I don't think I'll be looking at any other brand. Its a outstanding outboard
AWESOME!!! Glad you're loving the Zuk!!
My merc 150 4 stroke is good on gas also in about 60 to 75 miles i use about 12 to 13 gallons averaging speeds of 26mph to 32mph
Bringing home a legend alpha 199 225 pro xs 2 stroke next week. If engine craps out it will have a Suzuki ss on it for sure. Hopefully prop stuff will be figured out by the time i will need to repower. Great vid as always!!
I have a 2019 Suzuki DF250SS on a shallow-v bay boat. I love it. Super quite and a lot of power. I feel it should have more top end speed. I just need to play with some props. I have it propped for getting up quick in shallow water and it does that great. Has tons of thrust. I know it would be a trade off to gain speed.
Would you compare Suzuki versus Yamaha next?
Dude I found this channel a few days ago..... awesome job man
Thanks buddy! Spread the word! 👍🏻
If I ever win the lottery, I am driving my Champ 202 from south Texas to let you do a complete refurb and repower. Tired of the big corporations pushing bad products down our throats. Like the brand battles!
Hell yeah buddy!!! We agree!
Awesome peace on the 250 challenge you basically reaffirmed everything the guides down here in Florida are saying about the Suzuki
I've made a lot of bad decisions in my life but I still haven't bought a Mercury so I guess I'm not a lost cause! Haha
You guys must boat with some Old ass Mercs, 1973 Tower Of Power that Jim bob suped up him self??? Merc is gonna be the only manufacturer in the coming years!!!! Yamaha may stay but it’s a flea on a dogs ass to Yamaha, they make more in Violins than they do with OBs, just 22yrs of Marine experience I’m not totally talking out of my ass ha ha ha

Could you please do a review on the new 90hp Suzuki? Love all your videos, thank you!
Would love to see that same brand battle but with the 150 HP motors!
Brand Battle Suzuki VS Yamaha
I have a 1990 21 foot Swan Point Carolinian that I just recently restored, the original (gas-guzzling) 150 Evinrude on the boat needs to get yanked! I've been kicking tires on what brand of motor to get, and now I'm sold on the Sukuki SS. You sir are very thorough on articulating the Pros and Cons of these motors, I'm just not sure if the 250 will be too much motor for the old boat since the information plate that was once riveted to the boat is gone! Oh, great videos, keep up the good work!
We aren't exactly familiar with that boat and we're not sure if they are around anymore either. If they are you can always call them and ask if a 250 SS would work. We suspect it would be fine but if you want to stay in the 150 hp range check out the Suzuki 150 SS. Solid motor with great performance and reliability. Let us know what you find out!
Awesome! My Vexus avx1880 has a 115 ss. It has the same screens you show, I guide on a grass lake and have yet to overheat. Weird to see the 250's don't have that mesh screen stock. Only sacrifice is top speed, where same boats with 115 merc got 5-7 mph on me. I'm sure you could figure out the best prop for it. Hole shot is amazing though.
Have an older 2-Stroke Suzuki DT40 on a 1974 Alumacraft Yukon II, I'm restoring. I hope it does as well as the reviews I have seen. Building myself a Tiny Boat to fish shallow water. Love these animated episodes 🤣🍺🎣
Another awesome battle... Zuk for the win!! So many of the things you talked about in this battle is what led me to Suzuki. The #1 reason, the reliability that I've seen talked about. I did months of research and decided Zuk... I'm one of like 3 guys I know of that run the SS here in Northern Cali and even though service is only limited to 3 shops all between 1.5 and 5 hours from me, I still went Zuk because of the longevity stories I've seen and heard. LOVE IT and once I get the height right and the juice prop on it, it's gonna be on!!! Keep putting out great content guys ~ these battles are cool as hell!
Thanks Randy! We appreciate it!! Ya just can't beat Suzuki's reliability. 👍🏻
Can you list the 3 shops in California. I’m in Tracy.❤
@@dennisbest4979 - Inland Marine in Antioc is the closest to you. H&H marine is in bay area I think snd the other was in the Eureka, ca area I think but don’t recall the name.
I actually drove to Oregon and purchased with install because it was about $3000 cheaper than I found in CA.
Hope this helps
what do u think about the mercs from late 70s to mid 80s i 6 engines any good reliability ?
Totally waffling on the 115 pro xs and the 115 Yamaha Vmax for my 17 Alumacraft Competitor-- still haven't decided. Its a tough call, and its coming down to doing my own research as every dealer usually just beats up on the competition. It's been great listening to your take on a lot of this. Thanks for doing all these videos.
You are welcome William! At the end of the day go with whatever YOU feel is best and don't look back.
Buy the Yamaha, have had three Mercs and now have a Yamaha. No comparison, Yamaha by a long shot.
Yamaha all the way Suzuki are nice also but murk no way rather an etec and thats says something
Agree Suzuki, but looking for a prop. Suggestion?
Andy, could you please talk about the Suzuki DF 115 motor. I am finding little to no information on these smaller motors and would love to hear your thoughts. Thank you!
The 115 SS are great! We will make a specific smaller Suzuki Hp video. Great idea
So looking at a
200ss can you get it in drive by wire and can you get troll
Mode or should I go with the 200apx
Hey mate love the video, what's the chance on a review on all suzuki models?
We could get around to that!
Whats your opinion on Honda, I see a lot of guys up north were I go run them. Are they any good or just buying a name.
Love the videos and comparisons. Keep it up
I've run Yamaha on every boat except my current boat. 2018 250 pro xs. Mine is a turd. No power, super temperamental with regards to speed to where my boat ran 73-74 with just me and a full load and 70 with a partner and full load to now 66-67 is all I can scrape empty and 63 with a partner. First merc an will likely be my last. Techs near me say everything checks out and no codes. Used to spin a 25 tempest and fury to about 5800-5900 rpm, now down to a 23 tempest barley turning 5600. I'm so frustrated.
Wow that's horrible Dave! Keep us up to date on this and hold your dealers feet to the fire. Something is clearly wrong here and they need a fix instead of an excuse. Good luck buddy!
I have same problem befor i run 300xs and hit 75mph fury 25 than i get 250pro xs v8 same fury 25 i hit 64mph the worst engine in my life
Suzuki for the win!!
Bingo!!
What's coming down the line? Should I wait?
Does the Da140 suzuki stand as strong as the 250ss does ?
Yamaha and Merc better watch out! I feel Suzuki will soon be top dog in the inshore four stroke market! 👍🏻
You're spot on Chad, we agree!
CAN YOU BRAND BATTLE THE 200 HP CLASS IN 2022- SUZUKI 200SS VS YAMAHA SHO VS MERC PRO XS
You can buy a open rigging grommet for the V-6 V-8 only, Part number 25-8M0146954 is is for the dts models but will work easily, not smaller engines
Dealer network; Mercury, Parts pricing; Mercury, Parts availability when it becomes a late model; Mercury. Factory Tech/Warranty Support; Mercury. I own a late model DF115 which I love, if it drops a valve, a head costs almost as much as a short block.
Dealer Network, yes...Part Pricing/ Availability...Nothing wrong with Suzuki's pricing/ availability from what we've seen compared to Merc's...Factory Tech/Warranty Support, Suzuki's network is expanding across the country so just give it time. Now here's the real deal, This is what Merc guys always say and harp on about Suzuki's (not saying you're one, because clearly you aren't) but Parts/Availability, Factory Techs/Warranty Support doesn't matter when your outboard isn't plagued with constant problems! Bring this up to any Mercury guy and watch their heads explode. Enjoy that DF115 and that 6 year warranty!
@@TeamMarineService It’s a 12 model that ran out of warranty late in 18, I have had zero issues with it to date and love the performance, I don’t expect to have any issues with it at all. However I have 2 14 model DF175 in my shop (garage) that dropped valves. Heads are scary stupid in pricing, they really are not worth fixing as you end up about 75-80% of the cost of a new motor without warranty. I have been looking for a 14 model DF90 lower unit and back in August they were on a 6 month back order.....May be better now, but that project is on the back burner. From your videos, they probably are a low issue item, which would explain the availability issue.
Anyone have a crest pontoon with Suzuki 250ss I need to find out what prop to run
No problems on my 2018 df175 w 150 hrs in salt water yet. Did have to grease the bushing in the mid section because it started to squeal but thats it. My buddy has a brand new yamaha 150 and its a lot louder than zuke or it was to me. Not knocking yamaha because they are the standard right now.
can you talk about the Mercury Pro XS 2 stroke
Great Chanel . Love it , need your advice please …. I will order a Zodiac Medline 7,5 with probably a merc 300 Pro Xs …..I will use the boat in Italy in a lake….but what engine do you recommend??? Right now I am having a Brig Eagle 645 with an Evinrude E tec . 150 horsepower . I love it but the boat is a 2012 , suddenly the trim did stop to work at 19% . Let’s see …. and the boat is a bit uncomfortable for me. I have some problems on my knees and shoulder and elbow after a very bad car accident ….about 23 surgery’s in 5 years .
do you think I could take an new Evinrude 300 e etc?? Or will I get problems soon or later in Italy when the motor needs spare parts one day. I know Evinrude went bankrupt ….
Please let me know what you think
Hi Chris, in our opinion we'd steer clear of any Evinrude product. We would chose Suzuki over anything else but all of the Japanese motors are pretty solid. Mercury's are soon becoming 4th best if reliability is your #1 concern
I have a 2020 Suzuki DF90, what do you have to say about this motor? Is it one of the better motors? Should I get a DF115? It is on a Stingray 182SC!
We haven't found a bad Suzuki model!
Hey! A lil question here, i am planning on getting a 15 hp motor, i was thinking about a Yamaha, Mercury or a Evinrude. What would be your choice?
If you're set on those 3 go with Yamaha, then Mercury, then we'd buy a set of oars before the Evinrude! Haha We would go with Suzuki if it was our choice!
Team Marine Service thx for the reply.
How’s the Suzuki performance on aluminum deep V boats? Looking to repower 17ft boat.
Very strong!!!
Can’t wait until Suzuki comes out with the new engine you are talking about. I hope it is lighter that the current 250SS.
Oh you're gonna like it buddy!
For a boat motor... Reliability is #1. If you can go 200mph and the motor dies in 2 minutes, I'd take a outboard that pushes 20mph and runs forever. haha.
We 100% agree with ya! That is by far the most important factor
Suzuki would be my next motor. Would like to put it on a Gator Trax or a 21ft Caymas. Have ya done an over/under on a 21ft Caymas?
What is the price difference between a 250 Suzuki and a 250 SS Suzuki? Looking to put it on a 24 ft skiff.
In a 25" shaft the SS is 20k in Matte Black/ 19.8K in Nebular Black and the regular 250 is 19.6k in Nebular.
ss only comes in a 250 hp?
I’m running a 2020 Honda 250 on an Alumacraft Trophy 205. It has a 19 pitch prop. It’ll run to 6100-6300 rpm and will hit low 50s which seems about right. The Honda has a lot of midrange punch, but it slips a little out of the hole from a complete stand still. Thoughts? Have you run Honda’s back to back against the Merc and Suzuki? How does it fair in this brand battle?
What prop is it? Honda prop? And vents? Do you have a jackplate? As far as a side by side performance comparison between a Suzuki and a Merc it's not even close, but that's not Honda's game. Reliable is!
No jack plate or vents. It’s a Honda SS3x14x19R prop
I have an 05 250XS (gold block) runs good, 600ish hrs 05 ranger 521. Would I get the same performance or better if I put a new Suzuki 250 on there?
The strong lower unit you talked about has me interested.
Well you will most likely lose some MPH due to the fact that the XS is a racing variant. In our eyes the pro's out weigh the con's here. You will get a lot better fuel economy, have the new motor piece of mind with the warranty and a much stronger lower unit. What mph are you getting out of that 250 XS now?
Only had it a year and it had a tempest 27 hitting 70 with horrible chine walk and only 5600rpms. Running fury 4 25p now getting 68@5700 max so need to try more props. I’ve read I can run a verado lower and it would be tougher than this TM gen1
So I'm about to repower a 2006 170 Montauk, I was gonna go merc since I have merc gauges and controls. BUT! Now I'm thinking Suzuki, yes it would cost more money but I'm thinking long term. The haul is rated for 90 hp 410lbs. , can I go with a 115 that is 401 lbs? Or just stick with a 90? Thank you!
We always tell people to go with the max horsepower that the boat is rated for
How does the suzukis do against the yamahas. ?
I'm thinking about a Suzuki 200 ss for my Tr 21. I don't know anyone to put that motor on a 21ft bassboat so I'm worrying about it. Has anyone out there had any experience with this motor on a 21 ft boat? Thanks
Is price the reason why you're looking at the 200?
@@TeamMarineService it's light and it's supposed to be a good motor for trolling. My boat doesn't like the heavier 250 hpdi I have on it at all
Comment below on your experiences with having a Suzuki or Mercury
Ever ran a tempest on the zuke? They are very similar to the scorpion

Just bought an Alumacraft 205 Comp with a Suzuki 200. Love it, but man it revs high, 6100 with a Suzuki 3 blade 21 pitch. Thinking that a 23 will be better... Solas or Suzuki, hmmmmmm..... lol
HOW ABOUT WARRANTY?
What’s the price comparison if a guy wanted to repower his boat what’s the cost of a new one in each brand
I like honesty people

Can you give a review on the 150HP Suzuki ?
We can talk about that!
I have a 1990 Mercury 175 XR4 and its got who knows how many thousands of hours all original . But if I " knock on wood" need to Repower its going to be Suzuki . I know a guy with a 10 year old Suzuki 4 stroke and all he does is service it every year . My dads Optimax is always in the shop for fuel injection or air injection problems .
I actually like the appearance of the Merc 4S. What about the weight of the 2 motors?
The only comment we have in regards to weight is Mercury thinks making everything out of plastic is the deal and Suzuki doesn't!
@@TeamMarineService I found it. 578 for the SS and 505 for the Merc
Yep you're correct on those weights!
What brand of prop would you suggest
For the Suzuki 250 SS on a bass boat we point our customers to the new Solas Scorpion
@@TeamMarineServicethanks for the advice. Have you ever heard of SeaArk Boats?
We knew Suzuki was going to win
What do you think about Honda outboard motors
Not fast but they are pretty reliable
There's a lot of ifs Big Guy on the performance side.
Can you ship Suzuki out of state ? Are you allowed to talk MSRP, comparing apples to apples 150 4strokes. Honda, Suzuki, Mercury, Yamaha. With the rigging to make them all the same. No extra Hidden fees.❤
Whens the champion build coming back
Soon!
My big issue with the Suzuki is the weight. at I know about the center of gravity being forward, but it is still 100 pounds on the back of the boat. For an inshore/flats boat situation.. that matters. Appearance is totally subjective.. I love the way the Merc's look.
Hint Hint....Yamaha, Suzuki and Honda all apply the same standards when calculating their official dry weight....Mercury doesn't! Maybe that's why they are so much lighter? HMMMMM
Hope Mercury can figure out all of their issues!
We certainly hope they do too!
Lol yah kayak starting to look pretty good
I so wish suzuki would do a 20 inch 225
Other thing Suzuki wins at is quietness. The Pro XS 4 stroke has to do an obnoxious blimp of the throttle to start the engine, which scares every fish within a 500ft radius.
Truth!
Mercury needs to build a motor like my 1995 200 EFI and it's still running and haven't done anything to it major. Plugs, water impeller
Hey bud , what is causing the mercury motor to smoke
Well if you ask Mercury they have an answer...in our opinion it's not a very good answer but they do have one. Check out the comment section in our WHAT'S GOING ON WITH THE MERCURY PRO XS video , many people have chimed in and even a Merc tech provided some great info
Suzuki does make a good motor problem is trying to find a tech to work on one. I'll take mercury and a tech at most dealers.
Give them time to expand their network! 👍🏻
I am for sure buying a suzuki once we're back at work, i don't need performance, i need reliability, it'll be used for working, hauling heavy loads. But I am confused that there are 2 suzuki 250s, my old classmate has 250ss and loves it, so i thunk I'll get that.
I also saw this outboard I've never heard of before, 75hp tohatsu
Tohastu's are Nissan's and Nissan's are Tohatsu's if that makes any sense. Solid, reliable motors!!
The SS is their more performance oriented motor. The non SS model is only offered in a 25" shaft for offshore guys and the SS is available in a 20" and 25"...Both rock solid and reliable!!!
please coment on a yamaha f350
You didn't mention price? I heard the Suzuki's were several thousand more for a 250.
I would also choose the Suzuki as well. Mercury's quality is sadly not as good as it once was.
You're exactly right, it brings a tear to our eyes!
I'll buy reliability over performance any day.
What do you mean when the Mercury is not smoking?
They have an issue where oil will leak past the rings when the motor is trimmed down...smokes when ya start it back up to move to another spot.
@@TeamMarineService Happy Thanksgiving. Shit no Merc for me I have a Opti I'm thinking about repowering to 4 stroke. I'm probably going to go with the 225 zuk. The new Mercury cowling design is growing on me I didn't like it at first it definitely looks better in white in my opinion.
Enjoyed the unbiased video from the Suzuki dealer that wears Suzuki underwear.
Finally someone understands! :)
Stfu
When does Suzuki offer the SS on a 200 and 225 platform??? They are missing out on performance market for smaller boats.
They make a 200 SS and we have been on their case to make a 225! Time will tell
What about PRICE ???
Yes. Price out the door ready to perform correctly (so replacing the Suzuki prop).
Suzuki has to win the price battle as well
It definitely does!
I went and bought a merc 150 for my boat first motor ever if i dont like it ill get a suzuki or yamaha i couldnt get yamaha cuz theres nothing here in Alaska and i got a good deal on my merc
Hope all is well up there Edward! Ya can't pass up good deals when they come by. Hope that Merc lasts ya forever bud! 👍🏻
@@TeamMarineService i hope so to man first motor ever a 150 i should of went the suzuki 115 route but the merc was a good deal i couldnt pass up on
My next pontoon will have a suzuki. Period. Reliable quality. Mercury has slipped and they are having problems as of late. Flywheels and excessive smoking. I was a Mercury fan for 30 years. Not anymore though. Go Suzuki !
Suzuki! That’s good stuff. Who wooduh thunk it!?! I was born and raised in the Mississippi delta. Back then it was BlackmaxMerc-JohnsonGT-Evinrude-and Mariner or nuthin’. I even owned a JUNK one time! I mean a Force... the only outboard I ever blew up..The 1st time I heard about a 4 stroke outboard.... I though... “Worthless as wet toilet paper!”..How can you run a 4stroke anything (short of a Hendricks nascar engine) right on the red line all the time?? Too many moving parts to fail! I know they prolly got it figured out.... but I’ll keep my good ole 2skroke! Same goes for my weed-eaters and chainsaws!
It's amazing where things have gone with these new 4 strokes! We were skeptical too when they were first introduced. Keep on rippin' those 2 Smokers!
The Japanese have been making four stroke motorcycle engines that turn 7500rpm at interstate speeds, and 14k when skinned back. Have been building them is shiny results for decades upon decades. Nothing going on in a consumer outboard is stressing their math skills
If that’s US dollars I’d hate to see what it cost hear
Are you in Canada? A Canadian viewer of our said it was around $121k canadian... out-freakin-ragous!
I don't trust both. The new 300F Yamaha steering keeps me
Is this a joke?! I love and respect your videos but a Zuki 250 4.0 liter vs a 250 4.6 v8 the Zuki gets eaten every time. If you ask Bass Cat, Triton, most that have done a TRUE AND FAIR comparison it’s typically 7mph. Maybe things have changed but the SS came out a long time ago, the first SHO and Pro XS in terms of large bore 4strokes that are light and kick ass on Bass Boats. I think it was 16yrs ago
We respect your opinion and glad you like our content Brannon. We encourage you to check out our video with Adrian Avena AND our Solar Scorpion Team Talk and report back! ;)
Mercury just can't hang! Lol
Like the suzuki better than the mercury
Hell yeah Kirk!
Suzuki slower then yamaha and merc but suzuki able to push heavier boats
He could have put a knife in it if he would have brought up price difference
I like my merc 150 4 stroke its faster then them slowzukis
I see you left yamaha out so that suzuki could win something...
Check out our brand battle between all 3 of the major Japanese brands
Hmmm unbiased?? Hahaha 🤣
A former Mercury guy becomes a Suzuki fan and through that becomes a Suzuki dealer! Soap Opera material!!! Haha
@@TeamMarineService Hahaha Let's write the screenplay!
Mercury prop on Suzuki motor. Problem solved.
Mercury dealers are all around me, the nearest suzuki is one hour away which was a factor in my repower. Yes I believe suzuki makes a great engine, however I also believe mercury makes a great engine, so I went with the 300 pro xs, I will say it was a hard decision as I do believe in the suzuki hype but don't believe the mercs are junk as this video shows. If the merc does turn out to be needing attention, I can be at 3 dealers within 10 miles or so, the suzuki is damn near 40 miles,if suzuki was the "chosen one" as this video states then why doesn't more people sell em, hell they have been around long enough to be more accepted with the boat crowd, people look down upon you at the sandbar if you have a suzuki, like its a consolation prize, I've been hearing for years that suzuki will come around to more places yet they never do.
Great comment Nate! In your case with having a couple Merc dealers so close that's a logical decision to go with one. Suzuki has been in the offshore game mostly and over the last couple years has started to make the push into the bass boat market. With that will come an expanded dealer network across the country, it'll just take some time. In the case of people "looking down" on Suzuki's as a consolation prize always remember that their are some people who will argue that Nitro makes the highest quality best boat, Evinrude makes the most reliable outboards and that American isn't number 1! Some people are just flat out crazy! 😂🇺🇸
What is this a backyard comparison? Hard to take advice on two products when it's obviously based upon personal choice. The SS Suzuki's are good, I agree, but to call Suzuki a better performer on a pontoon boat is like calling a Cummins diesel a better motor in tug boat. Merc's are made to run, on boats designed to run, Suzuki has water intake problems that result in overheating. I'm sorry, I don't think the Suzuki is a BETTER motor, it just may have better applications on some boats than Mercury. I've been outrun by more Mercs than Suzuki's or Yamaha's on flats boats.
Hey Robbie the beautiful thing about having a RUclips channel is that you get to give your personal take on things! When we say "better" we judge that by reliability first and foremost and if you think Merc's are more reliable then please pass whatever you're smoking! Hahaha Take a moment and read through all of these comments and hear what all of these fine folks have said then report back! PS Watch our Suzuki 250 SS unboxing video to hear the secret about changing to the 300 offshore screens to 100% eliminate the overheating! *wink wink
Just another butt hurt Mercury fan boy! Mercury will be a racing division only in 5 years!
