Twin V12 Mercury Verados on Sea Ray SLX 400

#CenterConsolesOnly #Mercury #GoBoldly
The final V12 walkthrough is here. We jumped on the Sea Ray SLX 400 to see what twin Mercury V12 Verados could do. We can't emphasize enough how impressive and quiet these V12 outboards are. Let us know what you think about this combination in the comments below!

The dark blue with that white interior looks fantastic

[@stevencarrollscorpio]

.... and especially with the black mercs on the back, SWEET!!! The v-12s on the back, take my money... Love the paint job, makes it look like something James Bond would be proud to own. (Only thing I would change, want the full glass enclosure, little thing).

[@JustinLeeMarine]

Cool vessel. I got my hands on a triple v12 set up once and I was impressed. Can't wait to do some work on them. Very cool engine. 😎

[@Bubbles99718]

Not an outboard V12. You're conflating

[@The_Arby]

Funny looking centre console.

Hello, I want to ask about the mat floor for this boat from where and who sells it

[@ianclifford7580]

Get a used Nortech and keep the change.

No cuddy tour ?

[@mgirard7161]

That is quick to 30 for that huge boat. Not far off some wake boats.

[@Bubbles99718]

Yeah. 600's with duo's get it done pretty good. Crazy times

[@Dkimbrough83]

ALMOST looks like you could fit trips verados back there

[@Bubbles99718]

"One of the sweetest engine packages we've ever had in this boat."?? What compares? Sea Ray always has weak sauce in the back. This has got to be the biggest power they have ever put on any of their boats

[@javierlinera1707]

I mean they do offer three 450r on this same boat and they used to have trip 400r as well. I still think the trip configuration is better .

So the V12 Verado is basically silent ?

[@CenterConsolesOnly]

Basically... you hear it a little when you are directly behind the exhaust but sitting next to it is a game changing experience.

[@jamesgeorge6551]

@@CenterConsolesOnly I'm sure I could sit next to one, or two, or triples, quads and quints, and enjoy the music. Thanks for the reply!

@@jamesgeorge6551 Snarl is great but also tiring. And a pair of these pushes this sucker to almost 60, which is crazy fast. So that's a good snarl too

@@Bubbles99718 Could not Agree with you more. As a captain who has run hot and bold for 30+ years, motor noise of any kind is Fatiguing. Only the amateurs like the racket. Fact.

They are V12 600s, not 400s

[@MisterBenne]

Wonderful boat but wow the water of this River/ Lake looks really brown n dirty.

[@peterdarr383]

That's tannin from the cypress of Lk. X 30 Miles E. of Disney. Most of the lakes of Central Florida have dark tea water.

[@benrupp04]

Awesome boat and motors but we’ll look back on these times of people wearing masks as peak idiocy.

[@tobyduvall74]

They don't give u speed like 7 marines

[@Bubbles99718]

This blows away 7 Marine on a multiple of fronts. That's why 7 marine bailed. They knew this was coming out and that they couldn't compete

[@Andrea.Gandalf]

Sorry bat the max speed ?

[@Bubbles99718]

58

[@alexnutcasio936]

You're talking $700K plus there!! To go 58???

[@karldunnegan2689]

Boats like that are outrageously expensive. That's just the way it is.

[@Bubbles99718]

Don't really know whay you're trying to say. This isn't designed for speed. Beamy, an overhead and heavy. 58 is crazy fast for this. Plus it's super comfy with multiple uses. Powerboats are one trick ponies where u just sit there and go fast. That's it.

[@alexnutcasio936]

Sean O 1200 hp to go 58? Disappointing. I'd expect into the 60s and it's possible with Jack plates. A pontoon with a 400R that hold 15 people can do greater than 60. Tells me the hull is not terribly efficient.

[@Bubbles99718]

@@alexnutcasio936 Tells me you don't know or have any understanding about the engineering of boats. I'll say it again: weight and beam massively slow down boats. Simple as that.

[@alexnutcasio936]

Sean O 1200 HP in an outboard yacht should be more than enough in a properly designed hull to do better than 58. It's not as much an issue with a planing hull. Of course bean ( width) makes a difference , but with proper chines and hull design, it should be faster. Your complete lack of understanding of planing hulls shows your ignorance.

[@desertr4062]

Two take aways from this video. The Sea Ray guy called them 'engines' not motors. Someone got it right finally. And that water looks disgusting!!

[@jamesgarvey8402]

Masks are so stupid. But awesome engines!!

[@thomaslavigne711]

Awesome SeaRay with some serious horsepower very cool 😎 Masks 😷 Really ?your outside it looks foolish!

[@mbwilson2625]

Nice, but ditch the masks. You can't catch Covid out on the lake.

[@TheVonMatrices]

There's always one comment about masks. Don't know why it bothers people so much to see others with masks.

[@alek4811]

Because it looks idiotic, we use faces to communicate. And the sound is slightly muffled and its distracting and...why? To virtue signal one’s humanity? Or one’s compliance.

[@bigbopper9627]

The masks were most likely part of the Risk Assessment.
