Lets not forget another part of this setup-the truck to pull it! Half tons wont pull this baby. Imagine the weight of just the 1000 gallons of fuel. Will take AT LEAST a 3/4 ton. And like someone pointed out...would probably be better off with an inboard-but then you would miss out on the "wow" factor.

Again why?? If your running a 40' + boat spend the money and get a blackwatch,vicken or hatteres with inboard's!!!
and have a real boat!!!
I can understand if you fishing all the king fish tenements maybe!!!
Only reason they hang that many merc on the back of them is so you still got two running for the way home!!
