Used boat with different motors

Looking at a used boat that has twin Mercury 150 power but one is a 2000 carb version and one is a 2003 EFI according to the seller. Would this be a problem? Thanks

Same foot? same props? Have you driven the boat? My biggest concern would be that both have similar compression numbers

Hopefully get to look at it this weekend. It’s about 4 hours away. I’ve asked him to send me the model numbers to verify which ones they are.

Wish I had kept my carbed Mers insted of replaceing with EFI. Nothing but trouble!

I hated my Optimax. Always had something going wrong with it.

I’ve owned both of those motors and never had a bit of trouble out of either one. They do LOVE gasoline though.
