Minimum of 90hp.
I made the decision to buy new after years of breaking down and not having the trust to try the things I always dreamed of.
Yes I know it was very ,very expensive but after waiting nearly 30 years It has turned out to be a wise decision
Fuel burn was a huge push , having a warranty, , having a decent dealer that could service it without it costing stupid amounts (Purbeck Marine Cobbs )
Salt water destroys engines and hardware ( weeks spent pulling engine’s apart have shown me what happens)
I did a trip to the Shambles last year, it cost £65 in fuel. That’s not too bad 👍
