| Well the Miami International Bloated Center Console show was fun. You need at least 2 days to see everything. The only small performances boat I saw was a Checkmate around 23 feet with a Verado. Even though I’m an OMC guy it was cool to see a full CRT motor at the ProMarine booth. The sales lady fro... |

| I had the same feeling as David. It just doesn't seem to be the right motor for an STV. .........Unless you want to look like you’re moving a new fridge to the cottage! :mrgreen: You're going to hurt Matt's feeling! :lol: Well, it kind of pains me to say this,.....but.......I agree with all of you ... |

The crossflow V4, 90 degree V4, and 60 degree V4 adapter plates are completely different.

There’s a post or two on S&F on the V4s. All the same principles that apply to mods to the V6 and V8 loopers apply to the smaller sibling also.

| Keep in mind the 90 degree looper V4 OMC makes considerably more torque than these 3 cyl Yams; even more in modified form (a relatively mild pump-gas lake motor can make 200 hp). Will these cases designed for much smaller motors hold up to lake use ? The V4 lower unit is durable, smaller diameter th... |

One 16" Taylor mid can probably be made available, $1600. That's just the midsection, not any brackets or adapter or anything.
If you want it shoot me a PM and I'll link you two up. Keep in mind these are no longer made.

| I will contact the hoarder in question and post if any of the Taylors are available. Jack Barsh of Full Throttle powerboats cuts the mids, as does another guy on S&F (forget his name, look in the classifieds - he does lots of Mercs - Mike Chapman if I remember correctly ?). That 89 looper is a G... |

I'm planning to go to the Miami Boat show for the first time in February. Has anybody on here gone before ? Any particular things you'd recommend I check out at the show, or Miami in general ? Anybody else going ?
