Title: New Tohatsu 4 Stoke
Post by: Chris1982 on June 29, 2015, 09:44:04 CET
Dear members,

I intend on buying a new Tohatsu 40hp four stroke outboard to be fitted on a 14ft boat.  What do you think about these new four stroke outboards?

Thanks
Chris

Tohatsu are now represented by PTR Marine. Tohatsu make pretty solid outboards, but there needs to be a distinct price advantage over say Yamaha or Suzuki in my opinion to buy a Tohatsu because parts are expensive compared to other brands.

Try and consider buying the dealer (the after sales relationship) rather than the brand.
