Time is more precious than money and when you travel all the way from Switzerland to go boating in Miami. With family and friends waiting, a full engine rebuild takes more time than its worth. For Jack Villars who purchased a 2006 44 MTI from Extreme Powerboats of North Miami, all was great on his vacation until he had an engine problem. Solutions? Well he had some choices. Do a full rebuild, repair what the problem was if it could be pin pointed or just do a simple engine exchange.
The first two options of course require time and who knows what you could get if you don’t do a full rebuild. Having complete stock rebuilds available for a quick change may be readily available in some automotive application but what about complete rebuilt Mercury Racing 1075’s? Well Jack was in luck because, Cobra Power had just that ready to go. In fact they have 500 EFI’s, 525’s, 700’s and 1075’s. Fully rebuilt, in stock, and ready to go. Jack’s boat was ready and back on the water in just one day. Engine out, a little refurb of some rigging since they were in there and engine back in. Back to boating and living…
