I'm a little surprised the 6.2L is only rated at 300HP, same as the 350Mag. I would have expected a little more HP on top of the added torque it should have.

I completely agree with @whoozyerdaddy, I too will never buy from hideaway again and not because of the motor, but because of The customer service I got. They definitely don’t appreciate the customer once they make their sale unless you purchased a 200k boat or higher. I spent 68 grand on my boat and they acted like I was a peon, while 68 grand isn’t a ton in the boating world, there is a small percentage of people that will spend or can afford that kind of money on a toy that you use 4 months of the year (Michigan).
There was one particular sales person (no longer employed there) who was great to me, but others had issues with him. He did try and get me to buy the 2014 260 with the 270hp at the 2014 metromboat show. It was black. Luckily, they had the one I got in their showroom. I wanted white and it had the 350MAG.
Anyway.. to each their own. I'll say this... When Hideaway sold Rinker, Rinker was the largest display at the shows. Last week at the metro show, there were two new Rinkers there and that's it. There's a reason why Hideaway was Rinker's highest volume dealer...

I didn't get pushed on anything when buying mine new, but I knew what I wanted.
Yes they likely stock and sell alot of the standard and lower HP motors, but if the boats are terrible with a certain combo, the mfr shouldnt offer it. I've read so many comments on here how a 28 cuddy cant even get on plane with a 350 Mag that I must be imagining my 276 going to Put in Bay with 4 coolers, 5 people, tons of gear, and full tanks. Oh yeah, and almost 3mpg at a 33mph cruise.
