    No, that's not the case, unfortunately.

    It AMAZES me the number of "Product Release" images and videos that can be found out there on the internet.

    Not everything you find posted on websites or Facebook is "official"... but man, I sure hope this one is!!!!

    I'm sure this one will prove EXTRA useful in the days to come- can't wait to have one on my Service Truck!

    Well I didn’t catch the guy’s name standing on the new production line that gave the release.
    He listed all the new 4 strokes and Pics with each hp.
    They showed demos of the new 4 strokes on Lake X.
    175 hp is V-6
    200-300 V-8 Pro XS
    250r and 300r V-8

    I could not copy link to post here?

    I came here hoping to see it posted!

    That video you are describing was for Dealers/OEM's (not intended for public release yet).

    It, and a fair amount of other very useful info will be available tomorrow, however (after the product release).

    If it’s on the internet and not behind a password wall, it’s public. The marketing/web team of a company as big as Mercury isn’t that stupid.

    New Mercury V8 outboard. Thought that was bs but they kept the weight in check (so no problem with it other than more to go wrong) , No blower or super charger (what I like about my XB) , uses regular fuel ( what I don't like about my XB but not that big of a deal really). Looks nice guess we'll see what happens in the next 500 hours of operation. I'll put it on my watch list but not the buy list just yet.

    With that statement Don, What dictates a PRODUCT RELEASE?

    These PROTO TYPE motors have been in the hands of MANY people.

    Thanks

    Ordered a nitro Z21 in March
    it came in two days ago with the new 250 4 stroke. Just left the dealership. Will pick up and test run next Saturday.

    I'm sure they been testing them. We'll see what the real world market has in store for them. Wouldn't bother me one bit if they do well. I like my XB but seem to be a lot of issues with the XS stuff causing me to look at the Asian options if needed. They seem to build nice products and I've had a lot of their two wheeled versions and I've run them pretty hard but I do take care of my stuff. I'll be watching these.
