Hi!
I consider to add another Promax 300 on my Phantom 25. The width of the transomedge is 33 inches in total. The boat width is 5,5 feet.
How close can I mount the two engines - measured centerline to centerline - without causing problems.
Mercury reccommend a minimum of 26 inches centerline to centerline. This is required to eliminate cowling interference during lock to lock turns if one of the outboard would be in full tilt position, while the other outboard are in vertical running position.
However, I will run with both in vertical running position, and tilt them simultanously.
Please help!
