Not of the new Bravo housing due to the fact I just shipped the first ones out but of the regular #7M I do.

Should be testing mid next week.

Rik, the #7 is rated for 800 plus HP ? What type of hull are the tests on ?

I warranty the #7M at 850 hp for one year. Fortunately or Unfortunately very few of the applications have been at that level Everyone has been greater than the 850 by a large margin. But no problems so ??

Hulls: (single engine applications) Oke Mannefelt (sp), Eliminator Cat, Dominator Cat, Velocity, Active Thunder, a pontoon boat , Sunsation, Donzi, got a commercial dive boat with a Yanmar 440, got a few commercial fishing boats in Canada.....

Rik, so 850 hp plus on the #7M is great news( just in case I bump up ) The boats on the single engine applications, are they the new bravo type drive ???

Mixture. Just spoke with the dive boat customer, 34' Scarrab with the Yanmar. He blew everything he put on the boat, and was going though several of the Bmax's when he converted. Even he gained 10 mph. He gets on plane with customers and dive tanks and such and is very happy. 2 years and no blown drives.

A 30" well used 5 blade Herring, Full tank of gas 3 adults, very little chop, ran 91-92. We are thinking a 31 5 blade with the right conditions we will run at 96 mph.
