I have owned both tunnel and v bottom boats. That is what you meant right!

Seriously Jim? If Mercury does it, then it must be the best available...that's how we're supposed interpret everything huh? The Verado is a $100 million project POS and they are trying to sugar coat it. As a Brunswick investor-SELL SELL SELL! What you got going with the accountants that run that company anyway? I seriously can't believe you're slobbing Mercury's knob on everything they do. Comical. Let me guess-they make the best props too, and the best accessories, oh and the boat companies they own build the best boats on the planet

BTW, who said anything about a #6 drive and 850SC? Hell no, go to Teague and B-Max for half the $ and end up with a better product anyway

Nice, concise and well thought out response. "everything they do" LMFAO!

who puts a single #6 on a boat???? In that case YES, it is-application for a #6 isn't for single engine. Can be done, not the best results

( or can a bmax hold 1000ftlbs back these days?)

[Revolution141]

140+mph single engine #6 sounds like a pretty good result to me.........

Thought we were talking about 800hp total here (subject of the thread), but hey ok, change it up Psst, that's why Merc developed the NXT drive

Since I'm shooting holes in your theory here, talk about a niche market...single engine #6 applications?? Yeah I bet there's tons of people lined up to buy those...probably as many as 280's

Pretty sure I said I prefer the IMCO anyway. Are you guys waiting in line to buy boats with 15" 400R's? Sounds like it

Onetime, From what I have observed, most everyone in California go both ways!!

As far as us having a true performance outboard that will work on the small stuff, It doesn't look good coming from Mother Merc.-The 300X block production has now been cancelled as well. It was it separate part numbered block from all of the other 3.0s due the exhaust chest casting.

The good news is that there will be other private production operations to fill our market desires-Modifications can be made to all of the 3.0 stuff and e.c.u.s can be re-flashed to make much more power then 2.5s were capable of. I also think that there will soon be aftermarket 280 blocks available. So just because mercury isn't going to be the provider, it is offering opportunity to the private sector and they will capitalize it.

As for the California both ways, isn't that where Bruce Jenner is from?
