I’ve heard the new 250 and plus 4 strokes will be 8 cylinders... is that likely? Would make sense since without being 2 more they would be essentially the same as the 6 verado pros...

Heard the same
If that's the case, sounds like a 600 pound motor to me

Heard the new 3.4 4 strokes aren't available till may.... Doubt the new 250 will be either. Dang spark plug changes just got more expensive if v-8 is true.
When will it be announced?

I am hoping they announce the new 250hp bassboat motor at the Classic. New 250 Pro XS four stroke that falls in with the 150 Pro XS four stroke and uses a TorqueMaster lower unit. I can't see the other motors being used on bassboats.
One more week, I am hoping to hear about a new 250 next week sometime, someone has to be in the know.

Well, did Merc unveil a new 250 4S bass engine at the classic?

Heard BBC engineers saying extra 2 spark plugs will cost more, so they re building the new 250 to match the BBC crowd opinions
