Default Re: Non Seacraft Formula 233 Question

I/Os aren't for everyone. More maintanance which is fine if you can do it yourself; and they're not great if the boat's staying in a slip or on a mooring where marine growth is a problem. But, the ride is better, I think because of the lower center of gravity. And the nice clean closed transom is a plus, balanced by the minus of the motor box taking deck space. The new outboards are really nice, and I'm tempted to switch over to a 250 E Tech or Suzuki myself.

Having said that, If you decide to sell your Volvo, I'm looking to replace my old Mercruiser package and I'd be interested.

Steve
