Is the 272 with the 350/alpha better balanced? I know, not as much HP available and slower, but still a decent boat for less coin. Either one is pretty reasonable right now, just how much you want to spend! Plus you can get more than 260 HP from a small block through an alpha.

Just the engine bay room in a Bravo 311 is enough of a selling point to buy one. Try changing a water pump in a Bravo 272!!!! You litterally have to stand on your head. I can sit down in the engine bay in front of my engines in my 311. Winterizing is almost a breeze compared to a 272.

My 272 with big blocks and bravos is for sale at small block price........ I didn't find it too stern heavy, seems pretty well balanced, runs 70 with just over 400hp per side, great boat id love to keep I just have other things going on right now
