I think you will be hard pressed to find anyone who will try to tell you it is a superior design to an outboard. Unless they are trying to sell it to you. How many I/o do you see compared to outboards? Ask an experienced mechanic at a yard what they think and the associated repair costs. Look at all the threads on boating boards about converting I/O to outboards with a bracket. Just my .02

That $.02 is the reason I made the post
That feedback is really good and I appreciate it. Price is right, so might be one of those things where if the hull is good, an outboard conversion later on would be on the table.
