Hello all, Just joined on here. I have an 06 Bayliner 197sd deck boat with a 3.0 litre mercruiser engine in it. I've had the boat 8 years now but the motor has never had enough power for me. The boats options were originally the 3 litre or 4.3 new.... Now I'm looking into buying a used boat with a4.3 in it and doing a swap. I've found a 1999 Sea ray with a 4.3 mercruiser for a good price and was wondering if this would be a suitable boat to swap with... I've worked on vehicles quite extensively but don't know I/O s that well to know what would line up and what wouldn't....I figured having a whole boat I'd have everything I need at my disposal... Ultimately I'd like to resell the donor boat with the 3 litre put back in it. Any advice is greatly appreciated.
