I know I am just being a smart azz...he he:evilb: However I do not like carying around a bunch of oil on the boat so for me the Verado's work just perfectly.

:D Actually they sound like a fleet of shop vacums back there at WOT. Other than that all 3 running are dead quiet.

RBT, you have any test reports showing the 250xs or 300xs have fewer emissions...

Yeah Rocco you are so right about my boat and about me. You know more about my boat than I do so I guess I should yank those Verado's off and put on some???? What do you think resale would be?

Until any of you have owned a 2 stroke and then the Verado SYSTEM, I can't see some of your arguments. It really depends on the boat itself and the type of boating you do. It's really all about the...

Most any auto parts store will recycle your oil for free. The boat has to be out of the water to drain the oil just like changing the oil on a bravo outdrive.

Also you do not have to use the...

Re: Verado 300 and 325HP to debut in Miami

Actually since the Concept boats are extremely light weight the 300xs will be a great choice for Marks Concept. I'm sure 275 Verado's would be a nice package too with there ease of ownership and the...

Re: Verado 300 and 325HP to debut in Miami

Actually when you figure in the cost of the oil burn with 2 strokes you come out ahead with Verado 4 strokes.

There are 2 Fountain 31 CC in my neighborhood. 1 has 225 Opti's the other has 2-250...

Re: Verado 300 and 325HP to debut in Miami

Mark the cost of oil for the 2-stroke will end up costing you more money. 4 stroke are where it's at for the future in outboards. I do not miss my 2 strokes at all. The Verado's do great with gas...
