    Refresh on the 250 SHO?

    Does anyone know when we are likely to see a refresh on the SHO?

    What is meant by "refresh"?


    There have been a number of changes since the first VF models were introduced.

    Design changes that are worthy of a cosmetic update as well.

    Exactly, with the alternator upgrade. I realize this might be unknowable but I suspect we see some updates like a fly by wire throttle in the next version. Wondered if they had released any hints or had a systematic release schedule. The update before that was 2010 but 12 years seems like a long time in this market.

    I have a 24. Great engine like it is. I don’t need all that fly by wire stuff and stuff. These engines cost way too much now. More expensive things to go wrong. It’s a boat motor simple is better to me

    I get it - that was just one example, although it seems everything including cars and trucks are all going that route.
