Yes that is the rage now....4-400 hp outboards is about $100k in motor alone. I want to retire near the beach and have a center console
Near shore boat but even used single 4 stroke outboard fishing boats are crazy priced. Boat dealers have long term finance plans for an engine only!

Looks like I'll find a good I/O with say 4.3 Merc and use it instead.....not the best but easy to find for under 10k. When the salt kills it a long block is very cheap.
