Re: Boats with a four cylinder 3.0 inboard/outboard?
I have no complaints about the VP 3.0 in my 18' Stingray. It has enough guts to pull a two-person tube or a skier easily. GPS top speed of 45 mph in ideal conditions...still over 40 with heavy load. I love the efficiency as well. My 21 gal tank lasts all day and then some. Mechanics I have chatted with have all commented that this motor is solid and reliable and has been around a while in one form or another. That gives me a warm and fuzzy feeling.
