Title: 2021 mercury verado
Post by: snow1 on February 02/12/21, 07:22:30 AM

Not  fan of merc but what a beast.v-12...not many rigs can handle the 1300 lbs on the transom's,my old 250 yammie tops out at 55mph on a calm morning,plenty fast but usually keep the rpm's down to 3200 and cruise under 30mph these days

Spring is near,even the sun is breaking before 7am these days,now if only it warms up.
