Im debating between these 2 engines. I could use the extra power on my 25 foot walkaround. Max hp is 400. I love the extra features on the 350 for my heavy boat. But its a nee design. So far i havent heard about many problems. But i also love the reliability of the f300. Which i know to be one of the best modern outboards out there.

What's the max passengers rated for that boat, with how many souls on board do you plan going boating with on a regular basis, is 400 HP the max rated for the boat. ?

Happy Boating

You will get the best performance from the hull and comfort & speed by going as close on to MFG recommended HP. You don't have to run it WOT all the time and you can back off throttle for fuel economy. I see this with the striper boats in my area ad the Yammy 300+ motors do troll!!!!
