Looking at purchasing 35-41 ft. Tiara - do you suggest direct drives or pod systems?

I have a 2000 41 Open with direct drive cats and dripless shift seals with no problems. I have seen a few of the pod drives and most of the people I have spoken to were less than thrilled with them. Way to much to go wrong and most mechanics haven't ever worked on them. Good luck getting parts in the Bahamas for pods.

How old of a boat are you looking for? Mine may be up for sale soon as I am thinking about moving to a 50' express.
