As for the rest of you gentlemen before we start our twelve step program we must all admit we have a Skater problem. You go first!

$ 25 to 27 k a piece at this place " so call it $ 60 k max out the door for 2 motor's , I wouldn't think anything more then $ 5 k max to install and rig and that would be a lot unless other things had to be done like making transom stronger ect,

Not so quick Grasshopper. You have to buy new steering props and flyby wire shifters. Then tie bar and Jack plates to handle the extra weight. It is never as cheap as you estimate it to be. Trust me I know!
