Default omc engines on 27' sundancer

We have been offered a trade in of a 1985 Searay Sundancer with twin OMC's. Does anyone know anything about this unusual power option?

I only know of one couple that has OMC i/o power in their boat and it has been nothing but trouble for them. Mainly the leg has been the issue, constantly, not the engine. They don't run the boat hard at all but it still breaks. Now it's in their back yard... where it'll be forever I'm sure. I say stay away too. Other than that one's OMC drives, those Amberjacks are nice boats.
