Check out the all white 47 fountain with the silver windshield with shogren on the side of the boat...was his triple 700 boat. The other 47 was a twin 700 boat.

Scott not to change the subject, but the drive shaft on my boat have to be greased and if so do you remove the cover over it on the 700 package to do that and at how many hrs.

So the 700/NXT version is not as good? How much $$ per engine for the #6 upgrade?
