Thanks Braydon-Spoke w/Mat(GREAT guy!) re: his 39OL great boat but hours on motors/drives concerns me-how many hours can you get out of 600merc. before they need rebuild?

Is "Links" boat still for sale? I saw it on Ebay awhile back, Here is a link, if you want to check it out

If its not for sale, or sold I apoligize {-:

those 600s are good for 400 hours our firend has a 39 with 700s that have the stage 3 upgrade and cam done to it with 330 with no issues its a great boat the 39 and handle rough water alot better then a fountain would but if i were you id go for a 700 nxt package

I agree if you could find a 42 legacy w 700s and nxt for your price it would be perfect

Your PM box is full

Spoke to Merc Racing here in WI this AM (920.921.5330). If the 600's are serviced per the manaul and not abused Merc Racing informed me of the following:
1. Top Ends - @ 300 hours do a leak down and spring inspection
2. Top Ends - @ 400 hours replace the valve springs/misc components
3. Full Rebuild - seen these motors go over 500 hours.
4. Routine Maintenance - follow the manual.

My Quattro listed above has 192 hours, every major component either replaced new/rebuilt, and is turn key. Inland WI water boat, no poker runs, weekend runs only. Engine/Drive/Blower Oil done every 10 hours, for me that is twice per season.

Good luck with your search, if you find a 05' or newer Legacy w/ 700's & NXT's for $175K call me I will take two :)

Yes this would be a tough find.

Thanks everyone! i think a 39 Quattro w/700s would be perfect!! I have cash ready to go. i am real close to buying a 38 fountain w/700s that does 116mph. not sure how stable the fountain would be at that speed?
