My old 40 wouldn't pay for the engines on that beast!

Can't wait till we can get out ... been a long winter. I'm hoping to get a lift in my slip this year if we can get a back over to work. Should help cut down on bottom cleaning haul outs.

See you out there Dave !

How attractive is the sound on a 400SS with Diesels? Never been on one. I'm guessing no silent choice exhaust option.

Diesels (Volvo Penta) are strictly through-hub. Zero clatter; they are incredibly quiet; just a very mild rumble. Once you ride on a boat with them, you'll understand why 80%+ of 400SS's are ordered with them. Great fuel mileage, too - 25 gph (total) at 40 mph.

That's the previous (first) FX8 with Mercs. The Ilmor boat is full-on silver.
