What to Look for When Buying a New Outboard

As much as you love your Suzuki watercraft, there will come a time when it no longer performs the way you want and need it to perform. What could be worse than taking a day off work, jumping into your boat and finding yourself stuck in the middle of the lake or ocean a few hours later? There are some clear warning signs that your outboard no longer works they way it once did. It might start a little sluggish and take some time to warm up, constantly die or sputter throughout the day. When shopping for a new outboard, there are a few things you’ll want to think about and consider.

How Much Power Can You Handle?

Before purchasing an outboard motor, think about the amount of power that both you and your watercraft can handle. It’s best that you stick with the same amount of horsepower that you currently have. Suzuki outboards range in size from 2.5 to 30 horsepower. Though many think that smaller boats can only handle smaller engines, manufacturers now make lightweight engines that are more powerful and can fit on even the smallest of boats.

What Type of Warranty Comes Included?

Buying a new outboard is a major investment. You want to ensure that you buy from manufacturers and retailers that offer the best warranties on those products. A good warranty should last a minimum of six months, but some companies now guarantees engines for three years or longer. You may also have the option of purchasing an extended warranty that adds an additional few years of protection. The warranty should cover malfunctions caused by manufacturer error. If the outboard suddenly stops working within a few months, you want to know that the company will refund your money.

Price and More

Websites like Online Outboards and other similar sites make it easy for you to get the best price. If you find an outboard motor on another website for a lower price, the site will reduce its price to the one you found online. In addition to price, you also want to look at what comes included with the motor. Some companies give you free shipping or free maintenance. You can go back to the company and schedule an appointment for maintenance without paying extra. Considering all these factors can help you find and buy the best outboard motor for your Suzuki watercraft.
