I don't know much about the differences so I turned to the best source I know!
With most boats having an inboard motor, what is the advantage to an ourboard?
More room in the boat? Higher reving/more HP? More economic? Reliable?

More room and better mileage than a jet. Costs less to make good speed than a jet or a v-drive. If you use Klotz Caster bean oil it smells so sweet .
Not nearly as noisy as my v-drive and less hassles with the fish cops.
You can glue a 1" socket to the bottom of your blender bowl and have a mobile margarida mixer.
Takes about 200 more HP to do the same thing as my boat with the outboards...
twin outboards 600HP
single inboard 800HP to achieve the same results....
Plus you can run at least 90% throttle until you run the fuel tanks dry.
Don't have to change engine oil.
Don't have to stand on your head to change the damn plugs! :crossx:

I thought most of the new outboards were 4 strokes...

The BRP Evinrude E-TEC is a clean burning two stroke; less emissions than most 4 strokes and better economy than the old carb motors. Merc has one too, but the name eludes me. :boxed:
