Why are people slagging this bloke off he’s a legend having a ball he’s blowing motors cause he’s goin hard, he obviously can afford them,awesome boat mate good shit put another clip up when you blow the 400 to stick it up peoples arses
My thoughts exactly. Its a weapon of a boat and you've got to respect a bloke that's put this kind of money into his passion as it obviously indicates success in other areas as well. In actually shocked, reading the comments how so many oriole seem to think its their right to say quite negative things about someone they don't know at all.
Finally someone does a boat video in rough water. Most boat vids show how well their boat does on flat water. Well enough, but that's not when it really matters.
...And, after all these years, we seem to have ended up back where we started. This looks one hell of a lot like the old Formula 233, the Ur-muscleboat, the boat that put Don Aronow on the map, the hull that launched a thousand copies. Often imitated, very seldom improved by much.
2.24 to 2.31 and 4.41 to 4.50 the hull seems to chine-walk. How does that feel? It reminds me of an overpowered boat I had that was a real handful. I guess that might be one of the trade-offs for a deep vee and soft landings, you can't have everything.
The VMR must get sick of this guys Distress Calls. By the looks of his new boat it won't be long until they get another one for Capsized Boat, Man overboard, or Fractured bones...
contradicted yourself with "blah blah I smoke this and that"...then you immediately told a story about how your blew a 350 version of the motor immediately. Guess what. You won whatever races you were referring to...but those other motors are most likely still running.
Does look and sound like an amazing vessel. More than I can say about the owner! Anyone that blows up a Verado 350, destroys Suzuki's and Yamaha's, need to learn how to become a better helmsman! One day, if you keep skippering your vessel like that, you're going to meet your creator!
there is a company out of Florida called Seven Marine. they take the motor out of a 2014 CTS-V and turn them into outboards. this motor produces 572 horsepower but if that's not enough for you they have A 627 horsepower model out of the ZR1 Corvette. if that 400r ever becomes boring you should look them up.
Seems like it chine walks a lot for only doing 52kts I know the formula 233 doesn't walk like that at those speeds or faster. 52kts seems a little slow for that hull with the 400r
The torque on those motors is insane. Was doing 60 on a quad 39 seahunter and a throttle punch from 60 threw me back like nothing I’ve ever felt from an outboard before. My boat does 70 so I wasn’t expecting that much acceleration from 60. Those 400r’s are something special.
hi, maybe a foil assisted, add another 10 ft long, a full extended cabin, a stabilizer that will take the corners, full cabin, a top deck for the full length of the boat...... what do you think?
the reason people call mercury's black anchor is because what happens to them once you have them... like you said, they blow up almost instantly (you just proved the saying). I dont hate mercury, in fact have twin mercury verado 250s still, and love them. but right now, left engines fuel injectors all stopped working while the right engine is making a long beep and not going away... still don't know the reason for it. Sold the engines last year, but the buyer still has not picked them up... so still sitting at home.
Rubbishes Yamahas & Suzukis, then immediately proceeds to mention that his 350 Verado blew up "almost immediately"..... yeah... okay. Nice boat though.
Dizzy i like suzuki more than mercury because they have a beter service and my 2 suzuki's i have on my boat never had problem's with them they always sounded like sowing machines
captaincrazy 123 I had a Suzuki boat first 200 hours problem after problem tookem off and stabbed an etec on it no problems and I get that 2 stroke punch and better economy
Nice video, very well made. Nice boat, if you like resin. Nice engine, supercharger sounds sweet. But after all that chest beating and bluster, we then have to endure talking about fuel efficiency. Please, spare me. Reminds me of some classic lines 'our father figures' said... If you have to ask how much, you can't afford it. Don't knock it if you can't afford it. If you are worried about petrol, you can't afford it. I'm always surprised to see how otherwise sensible guys swallow the 4 stroke myth. Enough of that, some will get it, I sure hope to see this boat on the water one day. Good on you and thanks for sharing your rig.
Fuel economy may not matter to you puttering around in your 12 foot tinny with your 6hp Parsun in your local creek, but for those of us that fish 70 plus nautical miles offshore fuel economy is your life. Nowhere to fill up out there mate.
What webnothing said. In southern Australia we also get a lot of wind and swell coming up from the Roaring Forties in the Southern Ocean, so you're gonna get very cold and wet in a centre console. And probably sunburnt at the same time, Australian weather is messed up.
That much speed on the ocean is foolish, so many reasons why this is true. But if you are a daredevil, just leave your kids at home, and get your will in shape, then have a ball I guess.
Just for the LOLS I’m going to share some details of my rig. Palin Nomad Adventurer (Gull-wing shaped hull)1968 17Ft Cost me $350. Trailer &850 2x Chrysler 150 HP 1979 $800. Whatever way I look at it, I have the box ticked for that class of boat. My point? Boating has a very low barrier of entry. Second hand (and new for that matter) boats, trailers and motors need due diligence done before purchase. The time taken from the start of the buying process to launch was 14 days. I understand that the majority of the boats featured on this channel is many months to years. I hope this info helps The Captain channels viewers in some way. Have a great day.
My mate wilts was the first cuta fisherman in western port bay. His name was Wilts. We got a local boat builder pat at nambour owner of boat collar and hydroplane technology
listen to all you blokes, pissed because you can't afford or your misso said NO. Its walking because of 400 horsies, quality boat, Each to their own, good onya bloke, get out there and give it some.
Be nice to see the build, under the paint. Stringers, glass, tank. How many layers, epoxy or poly. It's just all fluff about a motor and how much you spend at boat shop on accessories. Thermo or timber? Nothing about the build

@@darwonboyful the people who bag him are. Below him. And. Selling bait fish on the corner store for. 1$. Pk. Until. 7 pm. 😳

100% correct!
Looks terrifyingly out of control at full speed

Some of these shots look unreal, thumbs up
Missle is an understatement. Roller coaster ride if there's no fish, can't lose!
Awesome
15lb per HP is a great benchmark and this combo is 17.6lb a HP so it’s great to see a well balanced boat! Awesome cruise economy and speed 💯👍🏼👌🏼

awesome hoon boat....well done mark. Bit over hp though...chine walking....looked scary outta control almost
Trimmed wrong

thanks for the info I would never leave the dock with u
Wonder why I keep blowing motors? 🤔... immidiately proceeds to run water pump dry by launching entire boat out of the water at max rpm
lol just can't figure it out
Gets pissed off when people say the Merc's a black anchor, immediately proceeds to tell us how his 350 Merc failed straight away.
That won't hurt the pump
for 1.5 seconds, the pump will be wet the whole time
Warranted Work for sure.
what an absolute weapon. great boat,lucky owner
7:26 great jump
Good clip dude. Happy hunting and fishing. Awesome boat. Cheers.
unstable is an understatement
Ive had same outboard for 15 years . I cant afford to blow them up.
That is awesome!! I'd love to be on it when it lifts out of the water like that!!
This super well made video, I love filmmaking as well as boats so this video is awesome!

Wonder how long till that hull gets stress cracks with all that airborne stuff.
Good shit, I like the bit about blooding the deck with the deer
Lol
there is a company out of Florida called Seven Marine. they take the motor out of a 2014 CTS-V and turn them into outboards. this motor produces 572 horsepower but if that's not enough for you they have A 627 horsepower model out of the ZR1 Corvette. if that 400r ever becomes boring you should look them up.
@Cobb Knobbler and blown legs everywhere......from Wyoming USA 🔫🤠
awesome boats. good work Mark
Seems like it chine walks a lot for only doing 52kts I know the formula 233 doesn't walk like that at those speeds or faster. 52kts seems a little slow for that hull with the 400r
Very very cool mate !!
I’d buy the engine and set it up in a backyard swimming pool just so I can redline it for s/charger whine
Verado 350 should be just as good. He says top speed is not important, and they are basically the same engines, just lower revs on the 350.
Nice video guys, what gear do you guys use to shoot?
Fast boat, great in rough seas, but it's unstable when it's on plane.
That boat is awesome!
1:24 Mark is where its at!
The torque on those motors is insane. Was doing 60 on a quad 39 seahunter and a throttle punch from 60 threw me back like nothing I’ve ever felt from an outboard before.
My boat does 70 so I wasn’t expecting that much acceleration from 60. Those 400r’s are something special.
bad ass boat like the layout
No evinrude?
The new mercury 450 came out its got 40% more torque than the 400 and way more fuel efficient at pretty much every rpm
Very nice boat.
Im going to start my own air conditioning business, so i can afford one
and over charge
I'd like to see these boats rigged and tested with a 7 Marine Outboard.
WAY to heavy. Not that the verado is a lightweight by any means, but I think those 7's are anchors.. just a car motor strapped to a misdection
Neptune will be collecting your soul soon. Good sinking Mate!
hi, maybe a foil assisted, add another 10 ft long, a full extended cabin, a stabilizer that will take the corners, full cabin, a top deck for the full length of the boat...... what do you think?
Gnarly Rig
Chine walks like crazy. That's good?? Even boats with lots of dead rise should not chine walk like that.
Totally overpowered!
I’d have a Yamaha 225 on that boat and be plenty good, this dudes fuckin blowin it...
yes beyer file eçómy beter mpgs beterr rabge
How do you afford a bit of kit like this.
I'm doing a run to percy island this year from stanage bay. Also im doing the bill run from the bay to the tip of the big F.
" more fuel efficient then my 140 suzuki" yea righto my 140 does 12 litres an hour at cruise and the 400 does 10 litres an hour at idle haah
You gonna listen to the rest of it or not
Twin 140s
hybride outbare slow speed batery zero emsímñ like hybrrd cars

Very nice how much place in boad💖💖💖👍
Rubbishes Yamahas & Suzukis, then immediately proceeds to mention that his 350 Verado blew up "almost immediately"..... yeah... okay.
Nice boat though.
Dizzy True, you can ruin any engine if you drive like an asshat. Personally I'd go with an Evinrude though if durability was my number one concern.
Dizzy i like suzuki more than mercury because they have a beter service and my 2 suzuki's i have on my boat never had problem's with them they always sounded like sowing machines
Pepe's pig purse

Carter Grant
Did I hear that right, based on an apache hull?!?!?
lol 1980 technology
Nice boat but it looks a bit wobbly at higher speeds
What a beast
Badazz boat there.....🍻
Imagine a 7 Marine 627 😭
Is that a plane or boat??
Y'all ever heard of a seven marine 627?
Nice video, very well made.
Nice boat, if you like resin.
Nice engine, supercharger sounds sweet.

Nice nice nice! 😎
mitch sounds like he needs to take up kneedlepoint
Pardon my ignorance but why aren't center consoles more prevalent in Australia?
What webnothing said. In southern Australia we also get a lot of wind and swell coming up from the Roaring Forties in the Southern Ocean, so you're gonna get very cold and wet in a centre console. And probably sunburnt at the same time, Australian weather is messed up.
Nice 😍🤩👍🏻🇩🇰
simply awesome
where can i buy one
looks like it tracks a bit funny
dangerous boat
everyone does 8 Knots in the rough
Fridgy life
well that's one way for destoying your boat the helmsman is crazy
ñópe miamo vice
song at 0:58 please
Anybody game to lend your boat to this bloke for a day or two? Not me,thats for sure.Fun video though.Thanks for posting.
Why a guy would buy a boat for that kind of money with an outboard that doesn't have a trim switch is beyond me.
Bob Wilson that's not even safe
is there a way i can poet on 2 engines and what is the prize for the boat + motor in south africa rand
buy eltríc moterß
Reminds me of my boat but on a larger scale
How much u wanna bet he breaks this one, or blows the motor? Geez dude, u r HARD on equipment.
That much speed on the ocean is foolish, so many reasons why this is true. But if you are a daredevil, just leave your kids at home, and get your will in shape, then have a ball I guess.
A helluva dead rise. Looks like a Grady 208.

in now 1:51 into this and I want I want I want!!!!!!! what a weapon :-)
great job. run that dog WFO!
Chops on board
Something wrong with the set up on that boat, might be ok with more hull in the water. Too much grunt.
Ucak mubarek ucak
Verados are the baddest outboards out there
This boat better be reinforced with steel and kevlar otherwise you’ll see cracks everywhere.
BLOWN UP OUTBOARDS I wonder why??!!
awesome
My mate wilts was the first cuta fisherman in western port bay.
His name was Wilts.
We got a local boat builder pat at nambour owner of boat collar and hydroplane technology
Dont they know how to correctly trim an engine down under?
We do but this bloke musn't
WOT?
Just close your eyes and listen sounds like a car salesperson to me
I couldn't afford this boat if it were given to me for free
Like race motors gotta be rebuilt every x hours
So many times my brother and I lanced the Haines Hunter 16 with a 175 hp EFI mercury airborne in 1999 no RUclips and we are not legends fyi
This boat looks very loose. This is clearly a racing style hull with too much weight and rides poorly.
listen to all you blokes, pissed because you can't afford or your misso said NO. Its walking because of 400 horsies, quality boat, Each to their own, good onya bloke, get out there and give it some.

Ever heard of a wellcraft airslot? Hull unsurpassed.. stable elite!
Gets angry cause people call merc a black anchor yet his 350 blew immediately ? Yep. Black anchor
Probably cause he launches the motor out of the water at max rpm
