    NEW 4 STROKE?

    I am thinking about replacing my 3.2 300 with a new 300 R. Any down side?

    Hi Bob, hope your doing well. From what I understand propping the 300r has been a challenge.

    Thanks Dean. I decided to stay with the 2 stroke. The $30,000 + price tag was the final decider.

    We recently put a 300r on ours and love it. They are proud of them though.

    300R runs great on whatever you bolt it to, Mercury Racing did an excellent job on this engine. You cant throw a 3L setup at it though.
