What 40hp four stroke?

Thinking of upgrading my 35 2stroke to 40 hp . I am leaning towards a Yamaha, but open to suggestions. It's going on a Quintrex 420 discovery.

Just want a tiller steer, key start, power trim and tilt.

Cheers

Old Bar Boy,

My old man has a Honda BF50 on a Stacer 4.35 side console. Absolutely beautiful. Great at getting out of theoh ole with the BLAST technology and loves to troll down low. I know this is not a tiler, however, I have a mate with a BF40 tiler on an Quinnie explorer and it also is great. Best of luck.

I had a Honda 40 for three years.

It was awesome.
