Bob,
Think it's the older one. He uses that motor everyday for last 2 years. He replaced bearing in the field. One thing he said was after you change bearing be very careful about putting it back together. The magnets are very powerful and it really snaps together hard. Fingers!

First I'm hearing of ePropulsion main bearing issues . . . is it the older 3.0 or the newer 3.0 Evo? Or maybe the motor is in the water year-round?
14 knots is a little fast for either the Navy 3.0 or 6.0. Their props are pitched a bit less than that: my top speeds are just under 12 knots. That's one advantage of the Elco: you can use third-party props (I think), and thus have more pitch/etc. selection. You may want to make sure that a suitably-pitched prop is available for the Elco 9.9hp model, for the top speeds you're after.
