Top speed on the 500 SSC with four of these behemoths is quoted at 60 mph. That’s flying in an express cruiser!
Agreed Ralph. Mercury should be heralded for innovation, but I tend to gravitate toward simplicity... especially with multiple motors.
Feeding 48 cylinders can’t be cheap. Best measured in gallons per minute?
Spotted this Formula sporting four Merc V12s. At 1260 lbs each (a total 5040 lbs), it's equal to hanging an F150 off the back. Couple this weight...
Pell, what year is the Bert? If it’s a mid-2000s boat, there may be laminate issues.
I’m a big fan of Greg Marshall as well. Met him while visiting some shipyards in the PacNW many years ago and subsequently at FLIBS. He’s a member...
Timekeeping and the sea are intertwined, although I loose track of time at sea. I have only owned two watches in my entire life. The first was...

Ditto on Judy's remarks. Welcome back Kafue!
Not the first time I've heard this and not a surprise either. I 'limited' our coverage of Amels when they tried to strong arm our content.
Welcome to YF Tight Lines. Pretty Post! I reduced the size of your pic from 3400 pixels to 800 pixels so it will display better across various...
No boat is perfect and some could use a nip & tuck. Case in point, the boat pictured here could certainly benefit from a little rhinoplasty! If...
The Rogues Thread Since 2005, our members have been building a database of some seriously ugly boats. The collection spans over 300 boats and...
We all know that forums are a great source of information. In our niche, we've built something uniquely special; a forum undiluted by fake news or...
