Is a Bayliner Capri 1950 Bowrider 2001 expensive to maintain?
Figure on a small boat like this 15 to 20% of its value per year to maintain if the boat is in fine shape to start with.Inboards are cheaper to work on but less effiecient cause they weigh more per horsepower.But you can have less hp on a outbord to do the same job as its heavier i/o. I find a 135 hp 4 cylinder i/o too small for this hard chined bayliner, its a small lake boat at best but that what it was built for.Great on fuel but a dog .A 175 outboard would be more to its taste depending on its bottom design.
