Regarding mechanical problems, I have not had any significant problems with
the outdrives on my boats.

Having said that...........I will never purchase another boat with an
outdrive as the upkeep is more demanding than an outboard.


That's why you need a Volvo I/O.


I really can't figure out what is the additional upkeep or why a Volvo
would have less than a Merc.
