From what I have seen/heard .I believe you would need at least 2 motors .I could be wrong .

Would be interesting unless it included side thrusters

I'm all but certain Evinrude offers it.  Saw a video of it in operation on the new Evinrude G2 series and it had two engines.  Works pretty slick.

About all you can do for easy docking is to have a really strong remote controlled trolling motor on the front.

I looked into the Merc version a little bit and it was 15-20k plus the cost of the second engine and only available for larger Verados if I remember right. I think I was around 60-70k into engines and rigging before purchasing a boat to connect them to...

I have seen that Premier have installed them on there Grand View models.
