I'll take my quiet 300 Veardos. Just did my 100 hr service for under 800 bucks for all three. I have 4 years left of warranty also.

On that 525 to 300 merc outboard your not comparing apples to apples , why ? Well in our world weight is our arch enemy and for example 2 merc 525 engines with drives are much heavier that two say 300 XS that weigh 1010 for pair . That 525 pkg is much heavier therefore robbing HP to push same boat with pair OB

just a thought ,
but tell you the truth $ 30k isn't that much money to these guy's that are buying this type of power , they probably don't even ask " how much "

Even if the numbers are off, he has a solid point. The motors aren't double another setup. Yeah they're more but your only going to shell out for 2 on the back of a 35CC. Or 3 if your feeling lucky. Or running kilo's
