1997 47SC speeds?
 

Saw 2 that I like...one with 525SC's and the other has 502MPI's
Wondering what the top speed of each is, the one with the 525's has nicer graphics and better colors on the cockpit vinyl int. but is about $15K more.

Thanks, Bobby. Yes, carbed. Bill hates EFI.

Re: 1997 47SC speeds?
 

Why is it that the 525 exhaust runs straight back, while the 502's go sideways ??

Re: 1997 47SC speeds?
 

No Problem

Re: 1997 47SC speeds?
 

The 502's have the computer, relays and mercathode mounted off of the manifold riser and probablly would not alloy the pipes to come back as with the HP500 or or 525SC motors. Just a guess.

What the heck, you're not that old yet....SOFT'Y :D

Better put your ballerina slippers on the walk-around :p

Some 47s have all six exhaust out under the swim platform. On our boat (with 525SCs) the center engine exhausts out thrue holes in the curved part of the hull/platform. At idle they are under water and with silent choice on the other two it softens the noise. What I don't like about the set up is it does shake the boat while at the dock.
