Personally I would go with a Mercury for for the all in one tiller. Same motor as the Tohatsu and Nissan except for the tiller. After that I would shop based on price and who in your area has the best service dept. in case service is needed. Too bad ya must have electric start as smalloutboards.com has some great buys on demo and fish camp motors with full warranty. Now if Evinrude would make an E Tech in a small package that would be a game changer in my mind.
