When buying an outboard engine or repowering your boat, there are plenty of questions to consider. Should I buy two-stroke or four-stroke engines? Are two engines better than one? Are three engines better than two? What size outboard do I need? How do I make sure not to underpower my boat? In most cases, the largest outboard makes the most sense.

Inboard engines are built to last. Outboard engines are definitely more popular with small-boat owners, but for the larger cruisers and sport fishers, inboard engines are second to none.

The inboard engine’s weight, centered and low, produces easier motion when drifting or cruising.

Scheduled maintenance on your boat’s engine is a fact of life. The ability to maintain your motor, do the scheduled maintenance yourself, and even fix and replace basic parts is a valuable skill for a boater.
