Thinking about purchasing a z520c with a 250 sho any thoughts on boat and motor combo is the z520c any better than the z520 which I can get a little cheaper thanks for your opinions.

Had that year model and a Z520. Like most newer models there are new bells-&-whistles(cooler in step, ventilation in boxes, day box, and I'm sure others I'm forgetting). Pretty much same boat as far as performance. Can't go wrong IMO
I know there were some issues with the early SHOs. I would go on the Yamaha forum and ask about that particular year model. They may have had the issues worked out by then, but I'm not sure.
Currently run this model and love it. Best performing boat and motor combo I've had. I like the layout with the center cooler step and having another small storage box as a result.

2013 Ranger Z520c w/Yamaha SHO 250
I have a 2013 ranger z520c carbon 250 pro xs best boat I have ever owned.
I have that boat with Merc pro xs. Awesome boat, I’ve added remote drain and remote charge, perfect combo
I have the same boat as well. My only complaint is the step cooler - it doesn't hold ice worth beans. Apparently there is a fix that Ranger will provide but I don't care enough about the cooler to fix it.
The SHO is beast on this boat. SHO model years 2012 and up have the initial gremlins resolved.
