    I have been debating this for my 150 as well. I'm still on the fence about it.

    I up graded mine late last year. One repair can save you hundreds or possibly thousands. Worst case you spent a few hundred and never used it, and bought a piece of mind for a few years.

    I usually don't buy into the extended warranty stuff. With that said when it comes to boat motors I do. I upgraded my 15 115 4 stroke to the platinum too

    You guys finding a better deal on the upgrades elsewhere vs using your dealer?? I can still add the Platinum to mine for the 4 & 5th year thru my dealer for like $662.. That price is good for first 9 months of ownership.. Than starts to go up I think..

    Mine is a 2017 300 Verado Pro..

    Platinum till March 2024. One repair will probably pay for it with these complex engines today.

    Drop me an email with your engine serial number (all quotes must go through the office system, and include serial number).
