WHICH IS BETTER?
Were looking at boats between 18.5' and 20'. Trying to decide how big of engine we need...
We figure about 75% of the time a 4.3 will do just fine becuase only 3-5 people will be in the boat. Occasionally, we might have 6-8. Will a 4.3 lack enough power to pull a wakeboarder out of the water with 1100lbs in the boat?
Is it worth it to pay more + pay for the greater fuel consumption of a 5.0L for the few times each year it will really be needed.
Need some opinions from experienced boaters, this will be our first.
Thanks.
