Quite a lot of different conclusions - the main one I could see was that prop choice and setting up was more important than anything else!!!

Also the Evinrude 2 stroke was the most economical at WOT but the Yammie was best at crusing speeds.

Not a lot in it really though - setup makes all the difference!!!
