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! http://blog.boattrader.com/2012/02/s...mc=BTNews_1202 |

I think the biggest Honda O/B is a Honda build car engine on end. |

My dad purchased an outboard thinking that it would be easier to service. All it did was raise the price of parts. My question was "what is so amazing about an outboard engine"? |

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. |
