Repowering my ‘07 300 Marlin this winter. I’ve decided on 300 Mercs. The Verado is recommended by the dealer and mechanic, but the SeaPro is the same block de-tuned, has more stainless below the waterline, and a bigger alternator (my Raymarine electronics and fridge burn through my battery setup pretty fast). Price is within the ballpark close enough to not be a factor.
Their reasoning was the wider Rpm range of the Verado will provide me better overall performance. The Sea Pros are more of a commercial product, and although I put 2-300 hours on the boat annually the difference between commercial and recreational use fits me better with Verados.
Anyone care to add their two cents?
Thanks in advance. Randy
