Default Gotta see this stupid rig

Dink wanted me to post this,they saw it in grand isle. How stupid can you be....3 different brands means 3 control boxes,harnesses,fuel senders,gauges,ect. WOW
I really like the custom transom saver on the etec.

i still imagine there's a difference in power output,even though they're labeled the same.What benefit or pro/cons rather than 3 same brand motors?

Not to mention the 2 oil tanks plus the service every 300 hours on the yammi......seems counter productive.....but, they got the money for it!! They're staying in the "presidential palace"

I dont understand how you can sync 3 different brands together. They use totally different main harnesses and ignitions. Must have been a beech

Maybe he's testing motors. Running all 3 until 2 die. The last one left standing is the winner. Its a contest.
