RE: [bolger] Re: FYI Coleman Outboards

You can get better info from the Coleman site on the 9.9/15, if you click on the "brochure" and
download that .pdf file.



Looks like the Coleman 9.9 and 15 share the same powerhead, which means that the 9.9 is quite heavy
compared to tohatsu/nissan, which share powerheads in 8 and 9.8 (only about 85 lb!), then jump to
this heavier weight for their 15 and 20.



Rgards,

Wayne Gilham

who bought his 9.8 Tohatsu "mail-order" from www.onlineoutboards.com, specifically to save the
sales-tax, BUT also since this was cheapest price I could find (free shipping!). Flawless service.

The 5hp looks a little different but the larger are dead ringers. Thoughtful of Parsun to put links
to more expensive manufacturers on their own page.

Even has electric!

Those outboards look like the Yamaha knock offs made by Parsun in China. Check out the site--they
look exactly the same.http://www.parsunmarine.com/index.aspMarkH

According to the specifications on the Coleman website they are all 72cc and 2.6 hp - even the 15hp version!

The 5hp looks a little different but the larger are dead ringers. Thoughtful of Parsun to put links to more expensive manufacturers on their own page.

These are not rebranded Briggs as I expected, but water cooled.
There's some controversy about where they're made - most probably
(where else but) China. Decent prices at Cabela's and Walmart.
