- - which bravo for 700 hp (https://www.offshoreonly.com/forums/general-q/65843-bravo-700-hp.html)

the new MERC version i think they call it a speedmaster..... :D

(sorry i can never resists a wiseass remark)

If your boat was a bit lighter say 7500lbs. I would say the XR's or IMCO SC's would work for you.
But your in Bmax territory at 9500lbs.
I've been there myself.

SUPERSTAR THEIRS ONE THING TO REMEMBER.ALL DRIVE APPLICATION'S IN TODAYS WORLD DEPEND ON THE BOAT THAT THEY ARE GOING ON.ALL DRIVE MANUFACTURES MAKE A VERY GOOD PRODUCT IF YOU USE IT FOR WHAT IT IS INTENDED FOR,AND NOTHING MORE!! I HAVE MET JASON AT MAX MARINE & THEY MAKE OUTSTANDING BRAVO UP GRADES. BUT WHEN YOU START GETTING 700 HP AND UP, HEAVY BOATS,& MORE TORQUE. YOU ARE LOOKING AT A B-MAX. TO UPGRADE A BRAVO THE COST OF THE DRIVE+THE COST OF THE UPGRADE IS EXPENSIVE,WHEN YOU CAN BUY A B-MAX FOR A LITTLE MORE AND HAVE A DRIVE THAT WILL TAKE THE HORSEPOWER YOU PUT TO IT.YOU DO THE MATH!!BELIEVE ME TODAYS ENGINE & DRIVE PACKAGES THAT ARE PUT INTO BOATS DONT HAVE ANY ROOM FOR MORE HORSEPOWER. EVERYONE WANTS TO GO A LITTLE FASTER(EVERYONE).IF YOU DONT SET IT UP RIGHT IT COULD COST YOU A BUNCH.

Wildthing Taz:

I see you are a dealer for Bmax. What are you letting them go for these days? Do you offer a credit on a used XR?

Feel free to drop me an email ([email protected])

HEY MIKE IT'S NO SECRETE B-MAX COST IS $12,200.00. AND AS FAR AS TAKING A TRADE IN,YOU WOULD DO BETTER LISTING THEM FOR SALE ON OSO or E-BAY. I WOULD NOT KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH THEM. WE ARE TRYING TO GET A BOOTH AT CINCI BOAT SHOW. IF WE DO STOP IN. WE WILL HAVE A B-MAX ON DISPLAY,SECTIONED OUT SO YOU CAN SEE THE INSIDE & WHAT YOU GET FOR THE COST. I WILL KNOW IF A BOOTH IS AVAILABLE IN A DAY OR SO. RON

Wildthing Taz:

Mike

CINCINNATI BOAT SHOW FRIDAY JANUARY 9th TO SUNDAY JANUARY 18th. SHOW IS CLOSED MONDAY THE 12th. RON
