I've been thrilled with the 300hp Etec on my 23' Tsunami. Cruise about 20mph & 2mpg, top speed near 50mph. This is in a Tsunami with a hardtop and a twin engine bracket that for unknown reasons is still filling with water. Trim tabs are also not yet working properly.
I expect performance to improve once we can keep the bracket dry. The motor is on it's 2nd season on 100:1 oil. Starts fast everytime. Zero maintenance costs to date. The easy winterization has been terrific too. It takes seconds to do and you don't need to prep. No fogging oil needed, no sparkplug wrenches. It's easy enough to do if you just think it may be a couple weeks before you get to use the boat again.
