Doesn't an inboard engine normally mean fuckhueg repair bills when something finally goes wrong? And I mean bigger than normal, boat reparis get expensive.

I would say just get a pontoon boat. Those are the easiest boats to do anything on. But I don't think that is what you are looking for.

>LS swapping a boat

Kek

20-30 foot open deck with whatever the largest outboard(s) you can fit on the back.

/n/ is transportation, just make a new thread.

Sbcs are very popular choices for boats

LS swaps are quickly replacing BBCs in the aftermarket. Similar or better power and much lighter.

Get an older inboard/outboard (engine sits in the hull, and there is an outdrive that pivots on the transom) with a v-hull and a V6 motor. It will be a good all-around boat for everything but wakesurfing (due to the outdrive). It won't have the greatest of wakes for wakeboarding, nor will it have as open a cabin like that of an outboard boat, but I think the price alone will make it more appealing.

An i/o boat will ride great, handle well, and do anything you wish it to do, but it will not be the best of anything. Many people buy this boat for a reason, as it allows them to fish, ski, and cruise around at a higher speed (most can hit 50-60 mph) in comfort, and will cost about $10k for one with low hours that is in good repair.

Personally, I like wakeboard boats, but I don't need to sanic around or fish. Pic related.

Nah, with inflation, it is break out another fifteen-hundred.

Outboards cost more to buy and repair.

Inboards may be a pain in the ass to get to, but they are generally easier to work on, as most are small block v8s or v6s that are found in cars, but with modified exhaust and cooling systems.

A hole in the water you pour money into.
