Built in redundancy is nice (twin 200's). Would one 400 be cheaper than two 200's and lighter too?

I was shocked when I looked at outboard pricing. Good luck.

So just for clarification the weight issue is not the Weight of the motors themselves? It’s a matter of fitting twins that can push the weight of the boat?
If so, I misunderstood and thought you meant you needed lighter weight motors

Yes I need lighter weight motors but 4 cyl. engines would work to hard given the boat weight.
