See full version: New Mercury V12 600-HP Outboard
The hydraulic, wet-clutch transmission engages without the characteristic outboard-clunk we’ve been accustomed to. This smoothness was especially noticeable when using Mercury’s Joystick Piloting for Outboards or when using features like its Skyhook virtual anchor, which often require lots of shifting to perform their respective functions.
To harness this power, Mercury used a lower unit with twin counter-rotating props that feature a four-blade prop in front and a three-blade prop behind. Mercury has a full range of props up to 18” (45.72 cm) in diameter. Big boats typically have many power-hungry features like gyro stabilizers, air-conditioners and concert-worthy stereos, so the alternator cranks out 150 amps. In comparison, the Mercury 400R produces 70 amps.
We think Mercury hit the mark by creating an outboard that can handle boats up to the mid-50-foot range, but it also can have single-engine applications in smaller boats, such as a 30-foot long, 10-foot-wide pontoon boat. Engine weight and boat balancing factors will obviously dictate the size of the boat that uses this engine. [links]
Two days before, at Lake X near Orlando, Fla., Mercury Marine invited the boating press to view and experience the prodigious horsepower from this robust block. Six boats measuring from 42’ to 54’ (12.80 m to 16.45 m) were on hand for running by the boating press. Not only was the new outboard engine platform the largest ever built, but it also incorporates a long list of innovations.

Mercury Optimax outboards are just fine. Like all the others, if you use them the way they're intended to be used, keep up with regular maintenance, as described in the owner's manual, they'll do just fine.
Re: Are Mercury Optimax bad outboards? more
More important than total hours, though, is the record of maintenance done on the outboard over those 9 years. Frankly, most people don't keep such records, but you can get an idea by talking to the owner. How often did he do this and that, and has he had any repairs made to the outboard? Most folks will answer those questions relatively honestly. [links]
