Ha! And I have to add one of them did have to repair the prop bottoming out on some sand barges/ debri a while back
The guy driving it wasn't familiar with the depth and was showboatin'. Overall, I am thinking compared to some of their larger cruising boats with complex inboard mechanisms which constantly gave hassle.. edit- both of my post are only sharing fwiw- I'm sure others will have better ideas.
