@A-Jay before you repower with a new Merc. You might want to look at this before you make your final decision. ?

No Doubt - 

And if I ever decide to get into Marine Salvage - this is the direction I'll be going.

If I had a boat big enough to handle it I would not want to listen to the diesel noise while I was running it.

Did you happen to see the price tag? 

Yea - 50K 

I could hang Twin Pro-XS's & a Kicker for that change.

You did say in that video the your rig is rated for 200 hp. The tag doesn't say how many 200's does it? So I'd say you're good! ?

Sure - And to balance out the weight I'll bump up my batteries to a 120 volts system . .

Now were on the same page. At 120v system you could run the TM, run an A/C unit in the summer, and a heater in the spring and fall. With all that hooked up the Lund would look sweet! ?
