Looks like a niche product to me. They are big heavy honkers.

The whole damned boat doesn't weigh much more than that rigged,
equipped and wet.

True, but 300 hp gas outboards are not exactly feather weight either.
I think the biggest issues right now are parts and dealer support.

The Yamaha 300 is about 550 lbs, and the Cox diesel is about 825 lbs. A bit heavier for sure.

Yes, but not really a deal breaker in my opinion. Consider that each
of my 300hp DD 6-71's weighs over 3,000 pounds, and a more modern
Cummins or Cat weighs well over 1,100 pounds plus transmission and
drive train.

And my old 115 Mercury 2-smoker is about 300#

Quite a difference

Yamaha is 551/562 pounds depending on shaft length.
