Unreal how the performance offshore pleasureboat market has been completely taken over by $750k - $1.5M outboard boats that max out between 90mph (V bottom CCs) and 130mph (cats) with stock power (Merc 500Rs). If you rewind the calendar just 10 years the same market was filled with inboard boats in the same market priced from $500k - $1M that maxed out between 140mph (Vs) and 180mph (cats) with stock power (Merc 1350s). Almost every pic from every poker run event is a new outboard powered boat between 34' and 52'.

Looks like they just like the Reliability. And if you have that kind of $, you just hang a backup outboard and don't miss boating.
