Mate I have a 250 verado, won't be able to get the size of the cut-out till next week some time though. Are you in the process of purchasing one? A template comes with all the smartcraft gear. Try the 'hulltruth' an american website or 'veradoclub' (pays to be a subscribed member). Not too sure how many people could be bothered to pull there screen out for the actual cut-out dimensions though, maybe someone hasn't thrown out there template. I am sure you could find the dims on the net somewhere. Sorry I wasn't more helpful
Sorry daz i should have read your last 2 posts, but yer there aren't too many verado's on this site. There are a few getting around cairns though.
P.S. They are a bloody awesome system, haven't seen anything thats compares.
Well come on Daz..... spit it out, what's up?! Trophy?
cheers fnq
Damn, i have been so good there for a while
its a 6m platey built by Scott ( bluewater boats ) and running a Verado 225
J/C thanks for that, will check out THT
the link Greg has given me is brillant
Nice, have seen one a bit smaller before walkaround I think, looked the goods! and a big 4 stroke with the performance of a 2 stroke... what wasn't the reef close enough already!
Hope you enjoy it should make mince meat of that 2 foot chop up here not to mention dodging those wetseason buildup squals we get in the afternoon.
Need a pic or two.

i agree that this thing will go hard in the seas we have up here ( slop)
a good mate had the 5.5 with a 200 on the back, was a treat going fishing in his boat
Daz
Congrats mate,
In that case, I highly recommend you visit www.veradoclub.com on the front page you will see a PDF called the 'Owners Tips'. The information within this PDF is gold for a new Verado owner.
Are you getting one of the new 2 star (emissions) models or the older 3 star. If it is an 07 or later it should be a 2 star = better WOT fuel economy.
thanks J/C
the 2 star wont be in australia till late this year
had a great look at that link and its great (thanx)
had a good chat with merc today and they are getting me a Laser ll 19p S/S prop to start with, gota be happy with that
i look after and do maintenance on a boat with twin 250HP Verados.
it has the standard Smartcraft gauges.
after 12 months of use there has only been a few niggling problems.
all up not a bad motor, but they are big and bulky and love to drink fuel.
most trips it averages 350-400+ litres for 100+ mile round trips.
would like to know what other Verado owners think.
There is a Boston Whaler 30+ feet near me that has twin 275 Verados on the back. It was sounding very sick one day then disappeared not long after. It returned a month or so later with a new powerhead on one of the motors. Not sure what was wrong with it.
I have also seen another boat with twin 275 on that needed both powerheads replacing but I believe that was due to the kid at the marina putting diesel in the tanks
