Wow, just read the latest issue of Trailer Boats and saw an article on quad-225hp-Hondas. Does this make sense to anyone? (I just realized that this is the April issue..I think I've been hooked). $68K for the outboards? Wow! To think that I've been enjoying an 80 hp Mercury (1972) on a "glass" walk-thru at a cost of about 900 dollars makes me crazy at the thought of 311K for the boat/motors combined. If one wants to fly on water, why not just buy an old Beaver aircraft, remove the wings and I believe one might get about 120 mph at a much cheaper price.<br /><br />1.4 mpg @ optimum cruise? phooey!
