Mercury has this new 400 hp Verado that has the best power to weight of all outboards. They call it the 400R. 4 would be perfect for a 53' Center Console. A quad 400R Nordic Center Console nearly touches 100 MPH. Not that I need to go that fast, but color me a guinea dripping with gold from Staten Island Baby, Cause Daddy Like!...
Console size is a no-brainer, I mean they ain't got a collective brain on that one.. Could not agree more..

Nice video. What a machine. Mil spec right out of the box, or so he made it sound like... Impressive design, and workmanship to say the very least. The Sea Hunter comes to mind as well. Yellowfin is always a tough one to beat, SeaVee, Contender, Fountain.
I want to see what number the 38 Fountain will put down with the new Mercury 400R 's That is a battleship and they are fast..

I am not delusional, There aren't any boats that could make those conditions good for the passengers. We were wet from head to toe mind you. Wind blown spray mainly. Cabin boat would have made a dry ride, otherwise, we should have stayed on the hill. No place for a V-20 IMPO!
