Yet? What do you mean yet? They been around since the mid 80's. Had a couple myself.<br /><br />I'm sure you mean the new ones. They all seem to run good. Popular enough that Wiseco makes replacement pistons for most.

No,the biggest outboard around here(Atlantic Ocean in Florida ) is a 250HP.Most are twins and I once saw a triple.I did see a quad on a defense boat but none were larger than a 250hp.I'have yet to see a 300hp on the river or in the Ocean.

They all seem to do well in the tests in magazines. Saw a couple of 300x Pro Maxs on a rig a few months back. Those require high test fuel. I'd hate to fill that rig up but it sure was pretty!
