hi all it's been a while
imho

inboard engine give you more problems and break down more often..... and depending on the motor parts are not always that much cheaper.

I have had inboards and outboards and will stick with the outboards esp in salt water.

if you can work on a inboard then you can also work on a outboard just have to look a bit longer before you start.

be careful if looking at a inboard engine with a closed fresh water cooling system they are extremely expensive to work on. I have paid over $40 for a hose.

the main plus to inboards motors over an outboard is fuel savings period.
