Announcing the discontinuation of the 700 on the same day the 750hp SB4 automotive engine is released to the public? Coincidence? I certainly hope not but only time will tell!

Does merc release production numbers for each offering? Just curious how many 700's, 1075's ect ect are out there

That sucks, they finally filled the 400hp gap with the 860 and then just opened a big gap back up.

They are ideal for a smaller cat and he didn't want to wait for the 860......so he got a deal on some 700s and had the boat running for the summer events.

Or he wanted blowers..... in a proven package, and save the 60-70K to put towards his mini bike restoration...........

So What is the price for an 860 without drive, if you can buy it that way.

The 700 with a number 6 drive is an awesome somewhat afordable low maintenace package that should be kept . It looks like the 860 with a number 6 will be awesome and low maintence as welll but the extra 70 to 80 grand will be hard for a lot of people to take when ordering a new boat. The jump from the 700's to 1100 was over 110000 when I ordered my boat, now the jump from 565 to 860 will probably be around the same or more. To most people, myself included 100000 is a lot of money and is a big step between packages.
