What is the weight 300x?

[scalywag]

How much does a 300x (25")weigh...???
How much does a 3liter 1996 225efi (25") weigh...???

The reason I need to know is I am thinkin' of swapping out
my 225EFI with 330x...But the boat is weight sensitive...
Thank's in advance...

Thanx for reply, Jarrell & David....From what you guy's are tellin' me, the 1996 3liter 225 efi, and the 300x are fairly close in weight...Correct...??? Ill tell you what, the 300x looks more beefy especially in the mid-section...I bet the cowl & pan are lighter on the 300x...Them older 3liter cowls are real heavy...

My 99 300 Pro Max ( close to a X ) weighed 498 without the cowling or trim pump.....
