Its seabuddy and two of my buddies from Mercury Marine on board to do a test of the Mercury Marine new engine. Some fuel, no water, and minimal gear also was onboard besides the estimated 700 lbs of weight between the three of us. This engine was installed in a Cobalt Boat, the Cobalt 296, a bow rider, that has a boat hull length of 28’ 5” with an LOA of 30’ 2” and that runs around 7,500 lbs in weight dry. more
Look for other features soon on the 296 Cobalt, Mercury Marine’s SeaCore drive, and the XR props. here
More about the boat and engine test on the next page. more
It is my understanding that Mercury no longer makes its version of the 496 engine. Production has stopped. Any boats with this now discontinued engine, are using up old inventory. But, it may take awhile to clear out that inventory. more

7. 379 CID Boss V8
Ford’s Super Duty V8 was introduced in 1958 as a replacement for the Lincoln Y-block (with a maximum displacement of only 332 CID in truck applications). The Super Duty was available in displacements of 401, 477 and 534 cubic inches. The Super Duty engines were large, heavy, high torque engines which operated at a relatively low RPM. The 534 produced 363 hp and 490 lb-ft of torque. Never intended for use in an automobile they were most commonly found in medium and heavy duty trucks of the time. There was a Marine version called the Seamaster that featured twin turbochargers.
The Ford 385 engine family (the name coming from the 3.85 inch crankshaft stroke of the 460 V8 was the Ford Motor Company’s final big block V8 engine design, replacing the Ford MEL engine and gradually superseding the Ford FE engine family. The engines were in production between 1968 and 1997. Some of the more famous versions of the 385 include the Cobra Jet, Super Cobra Jet, and of course, the Boss 429. However, Ford created a crate motor from the 383 block that displaced 514 CID and developed 625 hp straight out of the box. sadly, that motor has been discontinued but is till the king of the 385s.
