I have always been a Yamaha fan but this is pretty impressive. I bet it will be high dollar also.

I have owned most brands and not really loyal to any of them. This is out of my league anyway but it is nice to see so much new tech packed into one release.

I was not a fan of the new v6 and v8 either but they have grown on me. Seeing how this thing trims and how close together they mount them on twin/trip/quads you can understand there had to be some compromise on looks.

Probably not too long before we see a 100mph Freeman or similar Center Console.

I always wondered why no one came out with a 2 speed lower unit, or variable pitch prop..

Variable speed props were real, but didn't make much of a splash. Dont even know if they are still made.

[CoolHandLuke]

I wonder if they have been able to start it yet?

I’m predicting $100,000 a pop... if not more....
