    With the Miami boat show around the corner we are starting to plan a new build for the show.
    The boat is going to be an outboard boat. We have had many inquiries about building these.
    We are looking for input on cockpit configuration, engine pkg......

    thanks

    One of the things to consider, and Boston Whaler says it's a no-brainer, the 400R can only be serviced by an authorized Mercury Race facility but the 350 can be serviced by any Mercury authorized service center. For that reason, Boston Whaler will not put the 400R's on any of their boats currently.
    Getting bad advice is unfortunate, taking bad advice is a Serious matter!!
