The thing I like most about my Festool sanders is how well they work with their vac system. All my work is indoors and I no longer have a huge about of dust every where. I also have a 125 sander and use it as much or more than the 150 because it is lighter and easier to control even though it will not remove material nearly was fast.

The small stuff is the most time consuming. Cut the electrical tube down in the rear port locker. I then placed cleats and the sole. Once cured, I will cut the hole over the flushed electrical tube where the engine harness can be run.

I have also finished taping all the sole joints. Left a hole for the fuel fill and vent line in the sole over the tank. I'll hide those by boxing them in to the hull side.

A Suzuki 60 hp weighs 229 pounds. While a Yamaha 70 hp weighs 253 pounds. The Yamaha 60 hp weighs 247 pounds.

The Suzuki 60 hp sounds good, but will it matter give or take around 100 pounds on the transom for the Panga?
I just think a white Suzuki would look good on this boat. Not really sure what the difference would be with 10 hp.
I know everybody has their preference on motors....My boats (and most others) in the Bahamas run Yamaha. I have a buddy that gets Suzukis and it seems they have very weird problems. Some big some small. We run the hell out of them and generally only fresh water rinse them if they are going to be put up for more than a week. I.E. we don't baby them. I've had Mercury before but I think the Yamaha is the way to go for reliability. Just my 2 cents.

For me it would depend on dealer and price in that order. Now days I think all of them are good.

Yamaha 70hp is lightest in class; few complaints I have read about. Was going on my boat, but I wanted more alternator.
