Stinky heres my opinion as you know where we are there are very few days you can open a boat up, anyway with that said the bigger motors are cheaper to buy and well maintained because the rich change them often so burning more gas is no problem it would take along time at a few gallons a trip to make up the difference on repairs on a smaller motor, people tend to keep them longer and neglect them
