They don't play well in saltwater from my personal experience and from my view of others' experience. Too many breakdowns, required maintenance for me. 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
