Very nice, Is any engine builder offering this package marinized? Looks like the Cadilac engine.

Only ones I know of are the Seven Marine outboards. Pair of those might be fun.....

Can't wait to see this boat done! IMO most potential buyers that can afford a new offshore power boat are looking for

SPEED 100MPH
Unique, set apart from the standard crowd
Reliable turn key setup

Twin ILMOR MV8570's with Arneson ASD7's, SCX, or SCX upper SC lowers

Mercury 565's are nice but XR's are just junk, stock 525s blow bravos daily. Its sad but sooo true.

Good luck on the build and keep us updated!

any build updates?

Hull and stringers done, bulkhead installation mostly completed. Deck gel is sprayed, fiberglass and balsa coring underway. Just looked at it Monday at Saber.

See the New Saber Marine Build thread in the General Discussion forum[ATTACH=CONFIG]507256[/ATTACH]

So what motor package it going into it?? The artwork looks great!!

Have to decide pretty quick; The LS Ilmors haven't been released yet. Maybe some Merc 8.2's or how about those new 520 HP's?

Also do not forget any Boat manufacturer building boats since model year 2010 to currently has to install all engine packages with a marine approved catalyst system & computer controller on any horsepower rating 499 and below.

Big Brother knows best. :rolleyes:
