    Default Interesting sight on The Lake of the Ozarks

    Five 450 hp engines on a boat. I'd like to see them in operation.

    Over compensation for Lake of Ozarks.
    I have seen that setup before on a Grady White and other but these were ocean and Tampa Bay vessels.

    But if you can afford it.....have as much fun as you want. Cannot take it with you when you are 6ft under.

    HCB makes a 65' center console than you can equip with 6 mercury 600s. Would be a fun way to cruise from miami to the bahamas.

    Given the choice, I would take 4 600’s over 5 450’s.

    The drag of each additional engine is significant.

    so would I

    4x600=2400hp
    5x450=2250hp

    which way to spend 300k in outboards is a first world problem for sure....

    personally, I don't roll with anything less than 8....

    I was at my buddy’s marina the other day and SeaRay was there for dealers. This was a new 40’. Nothing top secret, but not everyday there is pair a V12s in front of you.

    Redundancy in an engine is a good thing!! I wouldn't turn down any of those! I'd like to line em all up for a shootout!!

    I see the third boat in that dock has a cover on it. Either it's superbad, or he has it covered out of shame! LOL!
