Servicing costs for this bad boy!
Submitted by pelagicyachts on Mon, 2021-03-29 09:37
Was parked up at Rockybay on saturday and this CC pulled up, prob around 36-38 foot - pretty interesting set up the motors appear to be set at an angle, (that may just be to access the stern ladder) - servicing costs would be frightening!

What a beast of a boat. Invincible 35 quad 300. Faaaark me.
4 Verados will not be cheap to service.
Then again if you can afford the price tag who cares about what it costs to service, I'd be more worried about the fuel burn. Verado 300 will burn 112 litres per hour per donk at 6100rpm. 448 litres per hour. Now that's ass puckering.
I budget about 1k each for my Two verados when a service is due ( $10 per hour per motor over a 100 hour period for maintenance in pretty good I think ) Service kits are fairly cheap yet it gets exxy when you start to add on thermostats, iridium plugs and other bits and pieces. Last trip to the fixit shop was a shade under 5k. I'm a firm believer on preventative maintenance, if it needs replacing then do it. Better to be a little lighter in the pocket versus stuck in the middle of no where.

Wonky donks
The motors are skewed more than likely from the joystick controller. There's a clip on Facebook of this very boat doing some fancy maneuvers in very tight spaces.

Invincible 35
Yeah its the Invincible 35. Has been set up with all the fruit.
Travels at 30 knots in all weather so far. Too new to tell what top speed will be.
Has put a few hours on it already and it was only delivered very recently

What is close to 70?
Give a man a mask, and he'll show you his true face...
The older you get the more you realize that no one has a f++king clue what they're doing.
Everyone's just winging it.
