That's a big girl strapped to the back... the 657 Seven Marine was under 1100lb dry - Make that girls as I doubt you will see very many single engine boats with this engine
....and yet another wave of used O/B and CC's are going to be hitting the classifieds as per every Merc release

I really have to wonder.........
A year+ ago Volvo Penta buys 7 marine (strange move IMO). Less than a year later VP shuts down 7 Marine production (stranger move IMO).
Is it possible Mercury paid VP a "fee" to shut down 7 Marine to capture ALL the market share in this space? For a couple million would VP do such a thing? (because I'm convinced Mercury is capable of doing it!)

There’s a picture of it on Screamandfly.com
Post says V-12 and it looks it as it’s at least 5 stories tall!
Also shows counter rotating gear case.
Its one ugly bastard!
They need to put the bag back on it!
Ugliest OB I’ve ever seen and I’ve seen them all.
Ugh!
