I'm not for sure he is brimming with disposable income at the moment.

That was the word a couple months ago...

I’m now expecting a line of electric outboards, starting with pontoon pushers, under the Evinrude name, at some point in the post COVID future...

Is that hunch or a rumor you heard?

Just a hunch, based on the language of the press release.

first, at least glad, bpr will continue to provide parts.  but, the bad part is the big hit in the pocket book that every e-tec owner just took because your trade-in or resale value of your rig went to about what the boat and trailer value are.  pretty sad.

I don't quite think so.   Probably just the opposite is true.  

There are enough die-hard Evinrude enthusiasts out there that it's quite possible your Evinrude just doubled in value overnight.  

If anybody has one they'd like to unload, hit me up.

Wrench, I got one i need you to work on, but im not parting with mine!

There was some mention of a Ghost tech motor coming out that was abandoned.  Ghosts are not real and are not live.  I guess my Johnson just become obsolete too.

Some years ago, GM acquired or eliminated all car manufacturers other than Ford and Dodge. What happened? Makers from other worlds stepped up to out do GM. VW and Toyota were two. Expect the same from here on out.
