Outboards ROCK!!

500hp at the same weight as my Suzuki 300 duoprop, can't wait to see one on a toon!!

726lbs vs 1260lbs for the V12 600.

Major blunder not having it on their website line up page yet though.

I long for the days of the 2 stroke 2.5 ROS... these behemoth 4 strokes are not only a nightmare to work on, expensive to maintain..... but the sound like a Sea Doo..... Ahhh the sound of a 2 stroke at 8500 RPMS.......

That hold space bar mid page is a nice touch to hear it
