Now the question that arises is which one should you go for whether it is the alpha 1 gen 1 or gen 2.

Well, the alpha 1 outdrive comes with the short-lived water pump while for gen 2, the water pump is a long-lasting one. Also, gen 2 comes with a gear lube monitor which is not present in gen 1. The lower edge of gen 1 is soft while that is sharp on gen 2. Gen 1 is cheaper than gen 2. These were some basic points between gen 1 and gen 2. If you think that this is all about the comparison, then let me tell you that no, we are not yet there. So, let's have a look at some of the major differences between alpha gen 1 and gen 2.

 

If you are looking for one such outdrive that comes with a water pump, then the gen 2 is the most appropriate one for you. Well, both the outdrives come with water pumps. However, if you are looking for a long-lasting water pump for your boat, then the gen 2 is more appropriate for you. You might not be able to distinguish between alpha gen 1 and alpha one gen 2 lower unit simply by looking at them superficially. 

 

However, if you have a closer look at the features, then you will get to know that gen 2 has a better water pump. So, if you are concerned about the performance of the water pump, then gen 2 is definitely the one for you. Also, if you are looking forward to getting a cheap outdrive for your boat, then the gen 1 is most appropriate for you. It is an affordable option and will provide you with a really good performance. However, if cost is no longer the concern, then it is always a better idea to go for gen 2 as it comes with a lot of enhanced feature.
