Nice. You’ll love those V8s. Has Onslow made the change to using Optimus EPS steering systems yet?

Didn't get to sea trial but she is awsome

OP, I’d recommend the Optimus EPS base steering package, even if you opt out of the 360 Joystick and SeaStation. The joystick feature can always be purchased at a later date by either yourself or a future owner of the boat. It may make your boat a better purchase choice for someone looking at a similar boat that can’t make the upgrade without replacing the entire Mercury steering system. I’m always thinking about the future, because someone never knows when they may want to or absolutely have to sell the boat.
