The 3 Arnesons would not be much more than half the "total" cost of the #6 Merc's and would be 1/3rd the weight on the transom. |

Both were set up excellent, the XR boat planed maybe abut second faster, but once on plane the Arneson out accelerated it. Docking was equal. For the coin, you cant beat an Arneson. I'm sold on them, less parts, handles more power, less coin..Good Luck on the B-maxs. |
a 46 BT with trip #6's would be too heavy in the back. You should really go with arnesons.

Are ASD bravo conversions about 25k each?
