We love ours - but be aware there's a design flaw in the recoil starter which
will have you replacing the cord eventually, perhaps several times.
Getting to the recoil starter involves cracking the case, not a big job, but a
nuisance nonetheless. We eventually went to small wire rope, and have had no
further issues. However, along the way I got to the point that I could make
the replacement in about 45 minutes block to block.
These are regarded by many full-time cruisers as disposables, as it costs as
much to rebuild one as it does to buy one, usually. That said, there's many
who report over 1000 hours on theirs with no trouble. There's also a yahoogroup
for them which you may like to review, with lots of hacks, if that's your
style, but also lots of commentary and advice.
