I was out on Lake Michigan on a Triton 2486 Wa last week. This boat was just re-powered with the new G2 Evinrude 300hp. This is a relatively heavy boat compared to other 24 walkarounds with a 4,850 dry weight. The boat came up on plane fast - and leveled out at a nice 36 mph cruising speed. The fuel burn was 2.5 mpg at this speed. One really impressive tool was the I-Trim. This Evinrude motor can sense when it needs trim and does it automatically. You can watch from the information screen on the dash. It was so cool to start at 0% and watch it increase the trim as the boat came up on plane. Also nice to watch mpg increase also! There are a few other bells and whistles like rpm increase button (1% either up or down), power steering assist, and E-link that I'll write more about. All in all - an outboard that will change the game IMO. ps - fishing report - 10 Lakers and Coho in 2 hours - only two of us on the boat (thanks Mike Z.) and a nice way to spend an early duck from work.
