I know he looked into getting twin yami's but it was almost impossible. The parent of Whaler I guess also owns Merc and it is a locked deal. The cost of buying the boat alone and then having yami's insatalled is made such that you will buy the mercs. If you buy a new whaler, you're gettin mercs.

I see him several times each boating season so I hope to get a ride/fishtrip soon. I have been on the 27 whaler boat before..it is really nice, they did a nice job on the 27, plenty of room lots of creature comforts, quality fittings and the fit and finish is probably ranked among the best IMO, it is almost too nice to fish on, but haven't seen the verados yet. The T top is awesome on that boat...really nice. The only minor complaint would be the dash where you would mount electronics...I think they should have left a little more room there for the larger screens, I think some units might be a little tight in there. But the boat I saw was an 04, he ordered an 05. Also he is having a shop custom mount all this so it should look nice. It should be an awesome rig when he is done. These motors have electronic throttles (no cables)...I can't wait to see how they work out. Imagine being able your command the engines to turn 4211.5 rpm.
