I have a 2009 Harris 250 SEL.(25 FT).It has a Merc. 350 Mag. 300 H.P. I purchased it last summer at Blue Creek.I test drove Both I/Os and outboards. Adavanages of I/O much smother ride most likley due to weight.Disadavanges Noise,Gas milage,Can't pick up with lift,harder to work on and must winterize and summerize If I had it to do over I would get the Outboard for the above reasons as well as mines cruiseing speed is about 25MPH and that uses alot of gas...
