Default Mako or Robalo

I am undecisive between a 1994 Mako 221B and an 88 Robalo 2320. The Rabalo has a New four stroke while the Mako has the original yamaha. Robalo brings electronics, Mako does not. Mako has nice Trailer Robalo has none. I would love the Mako but would need to buy a new engine instead of running a 94 250 yami saltwater series. Any advice is appreciated. Any advice is appreciated.

I think you've already made your decision, that 250 Yamaha is a very thirsty motor, and being 14 years old, it could start costing some big bucks to keep running right.
