Honda or Yamaha. I would have chose those over the Mercury to begin with.

Re: Which Brand Motor?
Just like cars...don't matter which brand as much as what kind of deal you can get and customer service if you should need it. Least that's the way I think about it. There's always a bad apple or two no matter which brand. I've seen several motors of the exact model act and run totally different. Also depends on how you run it and service it. That being said...I'm happy with the Suzuki 4 stroke I've had for 10 years with no problems.

I forgot about Suzuki. One of my friends' dad just bought a new Suzuki four stroke 115-150 and it came with a 6 Year Warranty. Thats awesome.

Re: Which Brand Motor?
Assuming there is a Suzuki dealer within driving distance i'd go with that. 6 years warranty would be hard to beat
