Well looks like Mercury is gearing up some new race outboards.
One is a Verado and the other is a 300XS SST model...hmm I will take both....drool.

wonder about the weight? ? ?
Did they leak any specs?? I wonder what the SST designation stands for?
The Verado (on the left) Is the new X-cat engine for 2014. The one of the right aint Mercury themselves, its a 300XS on a Mad EFI 15" shaft made by a company in europe. The Verado will give around 300 BHP and can be run on 95 octane fuel.
/Mr. Mercury Outboard nerd :D
Super Sport Tunnel is correct answer, 12" midsection. SS is short shaft with the 15" mid.

Here's a few pics I took at the boat show last week of the new 557, the thing is a beast.
Lower on the 557 sure looks like a Merc
Spark Arrestor/air cleaner sure adds some bling...
:)
I've heard that 557 is one badass clampon 👍
Anyone have specs?
