[QUOTE="gillhunter, post: 372150, member: 5151"] That's an interesting question. The last (non commercial) aluminum fishing boats that I recall coming out of the factory with an I/O (that wasn't a jet drive) were the Lund Tyee and Baron, but it seems that they are only making them with outboards now. This link is kind of interesting https://www.fishing.net.nz/asp_forums/how-hungry-is-a-135hp-30l-mercruiser_topic69815.html I think that the new big horse power outboards are fuel efficient enough now that the space trade off of the I/O isn't worth it any more.
