That engine dwarfs the boat and makes it look about 14ft

Rumour on S&F is that with a bigger turbo fitted Mercury has already seen over 400hp from the Verado but they won't yet produce it because it needs to be rebuilt more often than a 280.

This boat here with the Verado on the back has a lot more support built in to the transom to take the extra weight so it shouldnt be a problem.
