Default Synthetic oil in a outboard engine ?

I see no problem as long as the weight is correct. I use to run Mobil 1
20w-50 in my 5.7L Scarab for 10 years until it was sold. No problems..

I have been told that automotive synthetic oils (Mobil 1) should not be
used in a marine engine. I didn't hear the reasoning behind this

statement.
Does anyone know why they should not be used?

Thanks JG
