Merlin II 572 850hp running 60 hr motors $$$
I got three of them,and am wondering what they will be worth, and if I can't work a deal I like on a new boat I am going to repower with Yannmar 480's .
It's just too much work for me to get 91 oct. or higher fuel now around here, so I'm lookin for a new boat but if I can't find somebody to buy/trade my boat I'll repower what I have, it's a great boat.

Greg, you can't get fuel delivered?
I thought Occoquan Harbor Marina sells 93. Give them a ring and ask for Stephanie. That's where Jason Yates keeps his boat with 575SCs, and I know he needs 93.

They won't deliver anything but 89 to my house anymore, I never go that far north anymore, now that Tim's outside will never open again I only want to go south. And when your talking about going to Tyme & Tide or Occ. marina for me it's an 50-75 gal. ride to go where I don't want to be.
I put a 500 gal. tank at my house so I wouldn't have to deal with this crap but now with all the new rules for gas it's harder for people to stock the hi test gas. Plus other marinas do south don't have it anymore so if I need it I'm screwed. I got a 500 gal. tank in the boat but that won't get me to Va. beach and back.
