A powerful and reliable engine is desirable on two counts, on a boat running against a spring tide, especially when exiting an estuary port, you need every HP you can get; and the other reason; a smooth, quiet running engine without any nasty vibration just makes boating more pleasurable.
The crankshaft and piston/s assembly is perhaps the most fundamental part of the engine and careful attention paid to this area, replacing worn, damaged or defective parts, will help ensure the engine gives its best.
