At the weigh in, he blamed in on an incomplete "break in" Thats just a bunch of BS to keep one of his main sponsors happy IMO. Surely he wouldn't show up for the classic with a boat thats not ready to run.
My question is this, he said his boat would be ready in the morning, how is this possible? Does Merc have a couple of broken in outboards on hand to repower his rig overnight?
