Fellow boaters/fishermen:<br /><br />I am extremely interested in purchasing a boat with 2 200hp Mariner Carbureted Motors from the year 2000. Does anyone have any advice or opinions he/she can share with me? My buddy who's an outboard motor mechanic says they're fine. My other buddy who's a lobsterman and tug boat guy with over 20 years on the water is very against them. <br /><br />Your thoughts?<br /><br />I'd really appreciate your input.
