What is the difference between inboard and outboard in powerboat racing?
Inboard means that the engine is fixed inside the bottom of the boat. Outboard means the engine is fixed outside the boat, usually clamped to the stern, and can be tilted up in very shallow water, or removed from the boat when not in use for security.
Can you use a car 305 engine in a boat?
Yes, you can use a 305 engine on some boats however, you need to provide more info on the type of boat. Putting the engine on an inboard/outboard, style boat would not be difficult at all, as long as you already have a good lower unit, same goes for an inboard. An outboard, on the other hand will be difficult, if its even possible to run a horizontal engine vertically.
