Which 300 Mercury?

Guys I'm gonna be upgrading to 24ft bay boat in the next few months. I'm set on my boat choice just can't decide on the power . I'm gonna run Mercury but can't decide between 300xs or 300 verado. Boats gonna be a blazer bay 2420 gts I guide about 6 months a year right now depending on work schedule. I guess my main concern is reliability other than cost and weight of verado is one more reliable than the other?Any first hand experience with either engine?
