That would be cool but there’s a fair bit of cleaning up to do and then getting all my gear back in the boat and setup. Then there’s the whole motor break in procedure I need to go through for both the main and the kicker. Some of which asks for running full throttle for a minute each time. He told me it does 45mph and don’t want that speed in a big chop .

Here are some pics at home.
The 15hp kicker looks tiny next to the big motor. Helm is nice and clean. Boat is sitting nice on the trailer and rode great on the way home. Took it up to 105km on the highway and felt really good and stable.

Helm looks great. I wanted to go Merc and that 225 and kicker are both toque beasts. I went the cheap route and will envy you flying by. Do you have a small steering wheel below edge of the funnel beside the kicker throttle?

Yep, the Merc 225 Seapro is the v8, same block as the 250 & 300. No small steering wheel yet. I’ll see how it goes with cabin helm and auto pilot. It’s just another 15 hun or so
