I sent the seller an email with questions on motors, this is the info back from seller on this boat...
WE ORIGINALLY SAID THIS BOAT HAD TWIN 502'S BUT WE STAND CORRECTED. THE
ENGINES ARE 500 BULLDOGS WITH 475 HP EACH. THE PITCH OF THE PROPS IS 27
DEGREES. WE HAVE NEVER USED GPS TO MEASURE THE MPH ONLY THE SPEEDO. IF YOU
WOULD LIKE TO KNOW MORE CALL GRAY AT 214-724-3073

I just sent the seller an e-mail, asking for pics of the engines and a couple other questions. In his defense, it looks like the owner is some auto loan or finance company - they may have just bought the dealership where this boat was at, and don't really know anything about boats. Of course, if that's the case, maybe the guy should keep quiet rather than spout a bunch of bull****...

I just got an e-mail back from the seller, with some additional information and pics:
No pics of the engine compartment, though it does look clean from the pics he sent me. Now, I might be wrong, but I thought the 540 Bulldog was always a carb'd motor, not EFI as this guy claims; apparently Merc no longer offers it, since I can't find it on their website.
I get the feeling this Gray character doesn't know a whole lot about boats...
WE WERE INCORRECT ABOUT THE ENGINE SIZE THEY ARE 500 BULLDOGS WITH 475 HP,
EFI, THE BOAT HAS A REFRIDGERATOR, HEAD, SINK, THIS BOAT HAS SHOWED 100MPH
ON THE SPEEDO BUT NEVER TESTED WITH GPS. I AM SENDING SOME BETTER PICS OF
THE BOAT TODAY. I WILL SEND PICS OF THE ENGINE TOMORROW. IF YOU NEED TO CALL
ME MY # IS 214-724-3073 MY NAME IS GRAY
