Curious... any drive breakage on the Bravo set-ups? The boat is 10,000 pounds, so that is pretty much weight to push with the Bravo.

You won't find any steals on them. too much demand.

I found the insurance to be the same up to 800hp +\-
100 +\- in a nor tech cat is crusing speed.

THE 850's and 6 drives are probably the best all around package for the 36, still can get insurance in the 10-12k range depending on layup, but you have to have experience with a cat to get insured anyway. still runs 130-135mph which is as fast as you'll ever want to run anyway, still somewhat reliable with 150hour motors being typical, stay away from the Arnesons, will kill you when you try to resell

you can allways Whipple the 525's and make around 800,That would be a reliable package if the bravo would hold up?

The Bravo would never hold up to that.
Need a 6

I agree...especially on gas...Diesel, I believe the Arneson's make a great package.
