I am trying to start a bussiness doing watersports, (wakebording, tubes, wakeskating ect ect) I will be on the Ocean and gas is not cheap. whats better for this, inboard or outboard?
I'm not sure what is better on gas, but an inboard that has bladders you can fill up to make a bigger wake is better for wakeboarding. Also, inboards can turn on a dime so it's better for "slinging" around a tube. But, for a business I'm not sure that you'd be slinging around a tube like you may for personal use.
wakeboarding in the ocean is not reccomended - lots of waves and chop. Also most wakeboats are not designed for use in the ocean. If you want a serious wakeboat go with an inboard - more specifically a v-drive - they produce a better wake than the tradtional inboard. Also - if you go with an I/O you will not be able to wakesurf and the saltwater will eat up your exhaust manifolds and riser.
