How FAST do the

#CenterConsolesOnly #mercury #400 #freeman
We had a chance to jump on 15 OEM's testing out the New Mercury 350 and 400 Verado V10's! The way these engines push these larger boat is defiantly impressive! The low-end Torque puts you back in you seat even when you think it doesn't have anymore left. Let us know what you think about them down in the comments below.

Gorgeous Freeman. Looking forward to seeing more of these V-10's...especially putting these on my 34 Costa.

[@reeddill7842]

Should make for a great set up!

[@CenterConsolesOnly]

🤔

[@cannonfodder4812]

That might be a bit much for that Costa, the 500r would be the better choice I think

[@ToulKorkMan]

i can't wait for the Racing version of this.

[@robertmoody2221]

Awesome boat

[@vincejamison8078]

I'll have to take your word on the motors, but the boat? That looks like a very serious fishing gig.

[@ralphcantrell3214]

DAY-YUM!! One outboard motor and all its electronics and hardware is enough of a headache. I can't imagine maintaining/repairing FOUR of everything.

[@csrboltfan2643]

And to think some boats have SIX of those things hanging on the back. Talk about a nightmare !!

[@gypana]

No toilet, seriously?... imagine spending the cash for a boat like this and having to shit in a bucket miles offshore.

[@michaelangelo7511]

Terrible feature. No one goes out on a one hour fishing trip . Eight people and woman and no place to wee or poop.🤮

[@russjamison9041]

Same here. What about your girl when she has to go?

[@winningwithoutracing7811]

@@russjamison9041 That might be the point..... It's a feature, not a bug though I believe there are tax implications for not having a head and being able to claim as a residence......

My favorite boat just got better!

I am from the Bahamas and I love the hat 🇧🇸

There should be an inboard diesel option for this beast

Is there a large "X" on the roof for a helicopter? What a gorgeous boat. Thanks

Fast enough!

I see that porpoising at anything over 69

[@KingShadStarSeed9]

2:52 listen to those engines SING

[@MyersJ2Original]

I wonder what sharrow propellers could do with this setup. Maybe 1.1mpg at about 3 knots more cruise speed?

[@michiganengineer8621]

Sharrow props and a foiling system similar to that on the Insetta 35ifc or the Aquila 36. Might add 4 or 5 knots to both cruise and top end, along with being slightly less thirsty.

[@angusloughor-clarke386]

Why would all motors not come with these propellers standard if the benefits are so great? Is it the cost or something?

[@napalmhotdog4365]

@@angusloughor-clarke386 I think it’s the patent to be honest.

[@sweeyong7756]

4 lambo engines on the rear. 4 times thirsty.

[@TheGav0071]

Impressive, but can the freeman be fitted with a hydrofoil for even better fuel economy?

[@stemialert1]

Another big-time cat running on flat waters. Running this boat at 70 on flat water is like running a 1 tone diesel down the race track. Let's see some big water running!

[@avalanche3084]

Then make a video genius. Or should I say nobody hack.

[@cannonfodder4812]

Awesome boat, but for me at 47' i want inboards and a fighting chair.

[@armondogarcia7532]

Put them on a midnight express because I buy my sea food lol

[@jessebunker6062]

Looks like lake X in Florida.

[@csrboltfan2643]

It is.

[@patrickburgmeier7902]

Now put Sharrow props on all 4 and retest and see how fast.

[@bobbieb7146]

It’s V 12 600s that it needs

[@martinsbriglio8948]

Frankly fished one but after a few hours I was looking for a toilet … oh no … there was none ..

[@jaydenbankes8126]

47 is cool but let’s see them on a 42-43 freeman

[@r.1225]

What kind of sunglasses is the captain wearing?

[@892lamar]

sunclouds, specifically Scout Boats branded sunglasses haha

[@Ballsyone]

If you REALLY gotta go offshore fishing, no matter the conditions, the Freeman is THE choice. If you fish only day runs, the Freeman is THE choice. If you want to go to the Bahamas or keys for a few days you'll need a hotel room. 47 feet of boat and no berth. Hmmmm. We all get it but sometimes i want to sleep ON MY boat. Just stating the obvious. .

[@michiganengineer8621]

Kraken 52, once production gets rolling anyway

[@TheVonMatrices]

@@michiganengineer8621 I didn't know that boat even existed. Definitely a better boat IMO, but it's for a different market. The people who like Freeman boats are the type of people who want a boat that is 100% designed for fishing with no sacrifices made for creature comforts.

[@michiganengineer8621]

@@TheVonMatrices According to Howe (Howe2Live channel) hull #1 is nearly complete. I can hardly wait to see it in "the flesh" as it were!

[@ms.annthrope415]

Viking 52 for a sleep aboard. Full galley, fridge, showers, head. Large, comfy stateroom. Room to take 2 or 3 friends. And if the weather turns snotty, just lounge in the cabin. I'm too damned old to be playing "Old man and the Sea" and too poor to afford a top line cabin cruiser fishing machine.

[@Ballsyone]

@Ms. Ann Thrope Yeah totally better setup. But millions more. If money is no problem then definitely the Viking.

[@vincentmalizia7482]

$2M boat and no bathroom, there are better options in that price category

[@msk3905]

Couldn’t agree more

It's all about fishing. Use a bucket and be quick and quiet. L O L

​@csrboltfan Shit, nowadays you can't even buy a good 27ft center console for that much. The market has gone crazy.

[@csrboltfan2643]

@@hagenabe7314 Ridiculously crazy. Falcon Boats builds a 22' catamaran and they're listing it for $145K on their website. $145K for a TWENTY-TWO FOOT BOAT !!!!

Show the gph wide open

[@charlie2king]

They really should start making diesel engines A boat that big running on petrol it's just still Just eats the fuel

[@wallacejeffery5786]

40 mph in a boat is fast. Higher speeds on the water are very dangerous. You just cannot see debris in the water.

Красивая лодка, 120 км в час, для лодки ... нет слов, сколько пройти может без заправки на максимальной скорости? A beautiful boat, 120 km per hour, for a boat ... there are no words, how long can it go without refueling at maximum speed?

[@TheVonMatrices]

Quad 400hp v10 motors consume 500 l/h at WOT and the Freeman 47 has a 3750l fuel tank so 7.5 hours at WOT and you would have traveled 900km. Looking at those numbers, that seems like an absurdly long time that the boat can run at WOT before running out of fuel.

[@mannyrodriguez5453]

The Cat is a beast, impressive and fast, does it have a Seakeeper.

Not very many seats for a mill six😮

Motors look sweet but it seems Freeman is over priced?

[@csrboltfan2643]

WAAAAAY overpriced. If people would STOP buying them, the prices will come down.

Mercury gets you there fast. Yamaha and Suzuki get you home. No way I’d ever go offshore, out of sight of land, with Mercury’s behind me.

Remember, they're only testing these OB's since they're brand new.

[@iguanagetit8803]

Pretty basic fishing boat for almost $2 Million dollars 💸. I could happily spend %10 of that on a used sport fish and be able to afford the fuel.

[@georgegarland8385]

[@ekbusdriver]

Nobody uses a Freeman on a lake. Mercury is pretty serious about new product leaks, so if you are lucky enough to see it first, it will be on their private lake, regardless of the boat.
