sorry to post another thread about this but dealer has now offered F300 Yamahas for a grand more than the Vmax 250. All my research points to both motors being great but appears potentially the F300 is more bulletproof option from a reliability standpoint. I know the Vmax tests close to the 300 in a lot of categories. Going w a 23ft R series fastback. Is the 300 HP too much for cruising and pulling kids on tubes. I’m thinking the 300 is the way to go. I regretted not getting the 200 or 250 early on (vs my 150)and dont wanna regret getting the 300 vs. the 250. Is gas mileage gonna be much better w 250 or not enough to matter? Basically are there any reason NOT to go with the 300? Thanks guys! Will post pics of build when she comes in.
