I am a proud owner of my first set of twin 300 Zukes, I only have 150 hours so far but they are awesome!  I have friends in Alaska who have ran them for years in a saltwater/commercial application and regularly get 3500-4k hours of service without major issues.  I had Verados before and ran them for 2250 hours and would not wish a set of those motors (IN saltwater) on my worse enemy...that would be cruel.

That new 350 looks BA for sure but just something to think about because I had a buddy looking hard to switch from 250 Yamaha twins to those 350 Zukes and he said they require a minimum of 89 octane....our dock fuel is 87 octane and therefore that stopped him form moving forward with it.

The fuel issue could be a deal breaker. I will check it out.

love my 150 Suzuki, my 2009 9.9 is a bit hokey to flush out. Doesn't use muffs, you have to tape off the water intake to flush.  My buddy had good luck with his DF 150 also.
