What was the boat doing during those 2500 hours? Going slow at hull speed or pushing it near the pins. If the former, those engines should last for many, many more thousands of hours. If pushed hard, then not so much.
Also were they maintained properly and propped right.
Operating conditions, maintenance and set up are more important than hours.

Looking at a Mainship 400 , 2008 with twin 240 yanmars. BUT it has nearly 2500 hrs on the engines ... the good side it's a fresh water boat. The 2500 hours scares me... Convince me that 2500 hours is ok ..... or not
thanks
I agree, its not our job or responsibility to convince you of anything - just give you some advice for you to ultimately make the decision on. Probably the best bit of advice so far - get a mechanical inspection from someone who knows the engine model.No one can convince you one way or another unless they've run and surveyed the engines. That's your protection.
