What real purpose does a thermostat have on a boat? Should you remove it?

Most 90's and later engines are designed to run warmer than older engines. They are more efficient, have fewer emissions, start better and don't foul plugs when run at about 180 degrees or above. Remove your thermostats and the running temperatures are going to be 120-140 degrees, depending upon the water temperature you are in and the design of your engine.
Leave 'em in and your boat and pocket book will love you.
