Default 557 HP Outboard - WOW !!

This is a V8 Cadillac engine. Mercury outboard makes the block for GM (even in the cars) in Wisconsin. The engine is supercharged. $100K per engine.

I wonder how big of a fuel tank you need for these. They have to be some awesome gas guzzlers.

If you can afford the motor, I'm guessing the gas bill isn't an issue.
