Thinking about upgrading to a 35 Motion from my 30. I am wanting to stick with outboards cause I can work on them and costs. Thinking of buying a new hull and use the rigging off of my 30, or find a used one if there is one out there. Are the 35s as fun to drive as the 30?

Have you talked to Larry Goldman?? If not he's the guy to talk to.

I was just looking for a past owners opinion of a 35 with outboards. I have searched on the inboards, but pretty limited on outboard stuff

I have owned a 30 triple O/B Motion and then bought a 35 I/O. BIG difference in ride. A twin O/B 35 would be a dog. A triple would be OK but the resale sucks. Nobody wants O/B big cats. Call Larry Goldman and he will get you a boat. I would look for a 35 with big blocks and sixes.
