$130k what does the Merc 1350 sell for? With Arnesons should be a kickass package.

List on a Mercury Racing 1350 with an M8 drive is—don't shoot me, I know that list is list—is $203,000.

Not the rotary's Tyson built, the BBC's that went into, I believe Dennis Pool's boat. The ones that kept breaking propellers.
