Inboard (sterndrive): more maintenance and yearly expense, but a full length swim platform which is great for a family. Heavier, often noisier and often less efficient. Outboard: less maintenance and cost, usually quieter, usually more economical. Lighter overall, so quicker acceleration, loss of full length swim platform, more internal storage depending on configuration.
Man you guys are getting screwed in England. We are paying $2 AUD (1.15 pounds) per litre of the premium stuff. 1.25 pounds for diesel. Everyone in Australia is complaining about petrol prices as well. We shouldn't call you guys whinging Pom's any more
Summer is so busy - we run a 350 berth marina - buy and sell 30 boats per month and run 2 big charter boats - so I just do them when I get 10 mins . There is a great Princess 49 coming up in 2 weeks though 😎. Also I will film our family boating holiday around Mallorca again as that was quite funny 😂
James, love your vids, they're a very welcome distraction from: Ukraine, climate change, covid, Boris being an arse, Tories, economy - but was a bit meh about the boat - sorry. That locker could have been crew quarters and it wouldn't have been the worse.
Love watching your videos, so different lol
Another lovely tour of the Sea Ray 190 by yourself James, and it's a flyer when it comes to speed. Well done for a great informative tour James.
Nice presentation! I would definitely prefer a Sea Ray over a ZAR Formenti. The price-performance ratio is simply right and the design is cool.
Come on James, the sun's shining, get it out there on the water!
I know - I didn’t have time - it was in stock for a few hours then went to new owner 😃
So….. why would I choose the outboard vs the inboard? Advantages/disadvantages?
Outboard better for skiing due to acceleration. Inboard looks neater?

Dry stack the way to go, you don’t want to be putting a new trailer into salt water
I'll pass on the boat but please can you tell me where your getting petrol at 1.79 a litre especially in a marina. 😉
Hmm - yes I agree they have gone up a little more just recently 😇
Just paid £1.75 a litre at Morrisons Yeovil on my way to Weymouth 👌🏻
Marina fuel now that’s a different matter 😂

@@javierlorenzo7138 😂😂
Isn't an outboard at 150hp less than the standard 200hp inboard?
150hp is the max size outboard in the uk 🇬🇧
@@Boatscouk ah fair enough, then that poses another question, which would be better for skiing - the inboard or the out board?
@@amcrome I think the outboard gives a better ‘pull’
Buy enviy 150 hp eltricc outbard
he should have taken the opportunity to get a payrise while locking you in the back 😅😅

Why so few videos?? I miss them...

Wasted space I would not buy that boat it shows the builder was just interested in saving money👎
Let’s agree to disagree - nice boat.
Converted inboard layout,terrible waste of space
Useful storage !
