I spun a main bearing two summers ago in the Starboard engine
Last winter I lighten the motors up and they now have 600 HP each.
It is a different boat!

What's the new top speed after 600hp? Hows the stability? Do you have ext steering?

Mine is a handful starting at abt 78 MPH and up even with ext steering and zero gimble slop.
