Re: Evinrude 60

The new 60 Evinrude also has a computer aboard that records the running speeds of the motor. So each time the motor over-revs, that will be recorded into the memory, as well as the % of time at each 500 rpm intervals. If there are any warranty issues in the future, that could work against you.
