Looks like Bennington is offering the Mercury 400R racing engine on there boats now. 6 to 8 week lead time. I quess I should have waited.Should be a great engine although a little pricey compared to the 350.
Awesome news. I tried last year to see if Bennington would allow me to run the 400 on my boat. I didn't want to void my warranty. I also wanted to make sure the boat and hull would be safe. They told me I couldn't upgrade to the 400. If they are offering it, I will look into this again. I mentioned to the wife as we were going to lunch today that Bennington was offering the 400. She asked, "will it make the boat go faster?" I said "yes." She said "So when are you trading for it?" I am not sure if she meant trading the motor or the boat. I'll just assume approval for either. B) If I do buy a new boat, I learned to wait until Dec or Jan to get a good deal. Hence, if I plan it, I will sell my boat now during the season and be boat less for a few months. We shall see.
Cheers, Steve
She's a keeper. Go for the twin 400r's B)
Triple ripple!
Can't figure out why you would need that much HP on a pontoon. I think you would be better off with twin 200's and a joy stick control. Bout would jump out of the water better and you probably could raise the prop pitches higher for more speed. There are times that more is not better in my mind.
The joystick for multiple engines, though, is absolutely da bomb. I had a demo on a big boat with Verado twins in Florida and it was so simple to position a 38' center console boat, just magic.
