The problems are just compounded. Say you need to buy a new 300 HP outboard...that'll run you around $30k (but you may be able to offset by selling your old motor).

Most of these sportfishers have two diesels. The 1,000 hour service for each is normally $25k or more.

To rebuild, you are looking at $125k each, or more.

They'll drop brand new engines and gears into a boat that hasn't had a single overhaul yet to gain an extra 8 knots just because they can
