Why do we recommend buying an outboard boat or launch?
Outboard boats range from small fishing boats with a single motor to larger boats with multiple motors used for recreational boating, fishing, water sports, and commercial purposes. The main advantage of these boats lies mainly in the ability to tilt the motor out of the water when not in use, which helps prevent corrosion and long-term damage.
Other advantages include ease of maintenance; outboard motors are usually easier to maintain than inboard motors. This is due to easy accessibility for checking oil levels, changing spark plugs, etc. Also, with the outboard motor, there is the possibility of trimming and tilting the motor, providing precise control for maneuvering and docking in very tight spaces.
Regarding fuel, advances in outboard motor technology have improved fuel efficiency, which can be either gasoline or diesel. Electric motors have also been developed, which can result in savings in environmental pollution.
