Except for Centurion, Gekko, Malibu, Mastercraft, Moomba, & Tige...
Correct Craft is the only tournament boat, I think, that uses a right
hand prop... due to the left-hand (CCW) engines.

Oops...did I get that backwards? Right-hand is the rare one?
Ok... 
I don't know if I would call either one "rare", the right-hand-propped
inboard, which is quite common, requires a reverse-rotation (ccw)
engine, and the left-hand-propped inboards are a little more
straight-forward to do an automotive conversion job (still have to have
corrosion issues and spark ignition issues, & carb venting &
construction, all addressed).
When looking at rebuilds or new blocks, there is a $100.00 to $250.00
premium on the ccw engines.
Most stern drives have a standard, cw rotation engine.
