Default Seven Marine's New Outboard

557HP. Cadillac 6.2L supercharged engine. Single motor pushes a 29'10"
Center console with a 9'10" beam to 65 MPH. $70K. Wow!

Check out the video, too. This is a beast of an OB!

each purchase!

Mostly Cad parts with a dry sump. I think the biggest Honda O/B is a Honda
build car engine on end.

Will your local Caddy dealer know how to work on the motor and the lower
end?

My dad purchased an outboard thinking that it would be easier to
service. All it did was raise the price of parts.

You can get painted to match your gel-coat. You can get it painted to
match your arm candy's bathing suit. You can get it painted to match...

There really isn't anything special about it other than you can get it
painted to match anything you want and you could hang 4 of the off the
ass end of some boat and have a $300K of motors on a $150K boat.

Over 500HP from one OB motor is amazing. Sure it's expensive as hell,
and the company may not last to honor warranties, but it's still an
interesting design.
