"Hello to all,
We are the importer and distributor of Parsun outboards in the UK & ireland. The official parsun website in the UK is
www.parsunoutboard.co.uk
I saw this thread and just thought i would pen a few words. Here is an honest opinion on the product from my experiences with Parsun Outboards over the past 4 years (note i refrained from using the words "un-biased" as that would probably be untrue).
I first heard of parsun outboards in 2006 and immediately ordered one of each model for testing, over the next month we ran these engines for over 400hrs each. none of them missed a beat, so we made another order, this time for 10 of each model, they were all destined for rigorous marine testing by long standing customers of ours.
We did encounter some minor problems with this batch, specifically - the carburettor on the 4 and 5hp letting too much air in at idle, and the cd unit on one of the 9.9/15's failed.
we wrote to Parsun China detailing the faults and we got an email back within a day, explaining that they too had encountered these faults along with some others and were busy re-designing the 4/5hp carb and the 9.9/15 CD unit.
we asked for more stock for testing once they had rectified these faults. the new stock came, and the faults had disappeared.
We now in 2009 have a product that i as a profesional outboard engineer am very happy with, and proud to put my name to. there have been a few minor teething problems, but the way the manufacturers deal with any fault gives me full confidence in the future of the brand.
so would i recommend one to you?
well that would be pointless as i represent them, so i will just give you some facts and figures from 2008 so you can make your own mind up:
Qty sold in 2008 was 549 units
number of warranty claims in 2008 was 12
number of Parsun Dealers now in Uk & Ireland 25 and climbing fast (2 more signed up this week)
Average price difference between Parsun and other brands - 30%
Average Parts price difference between parsun and other brands 50%
warranty period - 2 years (i know the others give 5 years, but Tohatsu built their name on a 2 year warranty and they are now the biggest outboard manufacturer in the world)
in a recent independent test in boatmart, the 2.6hp was found to be the quietest 2.5hp on the market today. And with its 1.2l tank, it also had the longest range of any 2.5hp outboard. It used a little more fuel than the honda and yamaha though - 1 l/h @ Wide Open Throttle!! - read the review at:

Thanks for taking the time to read this.
Best Regards,
