Great avatar Tom!
Would be interesting to see how many HP's actually make it to the prop.
As far as price, I was in their booth a couple yrs ago w/some engineers from a local builder and they were doing the math on the spot. Twin 250/300's Vs a single 7 or triple 225/250's Vs twin 7's. Don't forget to add the controls/rigging/labor for each additional motor.
Also, I would expect their target market to be the 40'+, custom boat buyer in the $300K+ range so an additional $10K would be nothing to those guys plus to be able to pull in in the Abbaco's in one.....I'd rather be competitive w/junk I built in my garage than win w/stuff I bought.
I refuse to allow common sense to interfere w/my boat buying decisions.

Cool and all but most people can't care less about them. The small income guy is being run out of boating. Show me a new motor that is relatively light and doesn't cost your first born. Kinda sad what is happening to boating, mainly the smaller boats.
