weighs in at 454kgs...........

Seven Marine recently unveiled a 557-horsepower V-8 outboard engine . Seven Marine claims the 557 has nearly 60 percent more power than the 350-horsepower Yamaha 5.3-liter V-8, the 557’s closest competitor.

twin 557s will push an Intrepid 37 to a top speed north of 70 mph ( 113kph ) , and at a projected speed of approximately 40 mph (between 3200 and 3400 rpm) will burn 11.6 gallons per hour, per engine (44 ltrs per hour ).

44 ltr / hour is not that bad actually...................... beats a lot of big HP 2 strokes by miles. Other big 4 bangers will only do the 25 - 30ltrs per hour.

I like the closed loop cooling. Particularly in light of the all alloy block.

6.2ltrs and cranking 557hp.......... that's a tad under a V8 supercar spec.

Are they for sale yet?

A diesel would be nice for charter people.

Now if only I could fit a Toyota Prius motor (Supercharged of course) under the cowling of my Evinrude I would show them yanks !! :o:o
Would run super cheap and quiet so you can sneak up on the speedsters, when trolling it runs on electricity... after 1500rpm the supercharged motor kicks in and off you go !!!! 8-)

NAh fishfeeder - sounds like a good idea at first - but the cloud of smug left behind by any prius would put the fish off I'd say.
