I know you are a man of your word and I now believe that the ECM and the 600sci is unmodified and in its trim that Mercury Racing delivered to OuterLimits.
I think we all realize that the 600sci is really about about 660HP at the crankshaft and with that power the boat is performing in awesome fashion. As I and many others have said the new technology and construction methods in this boat are incredible state of the art and the results show it works very well and as I said it gives the rest of the performance boat building industry a preview and example of what the new technologies and designs can do for hull performance.
As for the cabin , there's limited height in the cabin from reduced hull height and that is obvious when one sees pictures of the boat in the water next to performance boats with taller freeboard. This lower profile and freeboard obviously reduces the overall weight of the boat and aids the aerodynamics at speed. This is a cutting edge boat with a great future for those who seek this type of performance boat and those that can step up to the cost of this technology and build quality. Again, Kudos to OuterLimits for there new SV29 offering and I wish them much success and a great future with this boat! I am a believer, I just can't afford one!

Structure and Design
Now I can show the images that reflect how OL utilizes the frame work to not only support the hull but also makes up the cabin. It is my understanding this is a component from the larger grid system used in the larger OL therefore a cost savings being able to used the same grid for "all" boats ...
Take note where you see a flat black finish ...

I did, read #4 on my first post about the aero package where I mentioned nice rear corners. This is all part of the aero package and I would not be surprised to hear they used models in a wind tunnel test for the shaping.

A gorgeous boat for sure. I am looking forward to going home again (grew up in Mass and RI). I will be stopping by OL if my wife likes it or not. Not to buy, just to gawk.
