600hp V12. It’s real. They just stuck another dagger in Yamaha. Will be around the same weight as their 1000lb 425, but 600hp is just the starting point.

I wouldn’t say that. The bulk of Yami sales are not the 425+HP.......and the reliability reputation of Yami vs Merc is still a wide margin.

Like saying Chevy has put a dagger in Toyota because they are dropping a 1000HP motor in a 1500.

Now, does this come into play with the top 1% of money people pushing Freeman’s, Invincibles, etc.? Sure. But the millions of bay boat and sub 30’ people are unaffected.

Will the Merc have 5 fuel filters like the Yammy?
What is your estimation on how long it will take for Merc to capture Yammys market share?
Any word on new offerings from Yammy?

Would love to read your thoughts on lithium crank batteries for Merc 4 strokes. Don the tyrant mod at BBC is about to lock down all discussion of the topic.
