I'm really happy with it. The thing that sold me on it is the HP for the weight. Most other motors take a huge jump in the weight after 15HP. The Honda used the same block for the 15 and 20HP. It seems very reliable, smooth and quiet. It has as much power as my little boat can handle! If you're on the Central Coast, the dealer I bought it from is in Atascadero and he has some in the showroom there.
