    Almost the same, I like the 245s. Nic block, carbs, light fly wheel low amp charging. Close to the same ports though.

    Pro Max uses so much less fuel than my old 245hp, and no rering every few years. But both great motors.

    Holy crap!! Fastest/most fun boat I've ever been in is a 28'skater w/twin 300pm's.....but that was quite few mph shy of 160.
    Any idea what the maintenance of a turbine is? I wouldn't even know where to start
