Default 7 Marine boosts outboard to .....

627 hp....... a bit much for V's ?

At cost of more than $50,000 each......maybe not the best solution for V's....

But, since I write the " how fast " threads, I'll guess......80mph before transom rips off.

I'll guess less than 8 mph when she goes down by the stern.

A pair of those on a 35-40 footer would be nice. I always think triples and quads are a bit much.
