Not sure if we have a dedicated Bravo 4 drive thread yet so I figured I’d start one. I believe there was some discussion earlier though in a thread with bbp. I’ll try to find it. And maybe Cobalt will offer one someday.

In the meantime, here is the article from Boating mag this month..

How is the lawsuit going that Volvo brought against Mercruiser regarding this drive a year and a half ago?

I suspect the suit will follow the same formula as the swim step lawsuit here...Brunswick will get their way on some small patent difference or technicality; there will be a large payout to the offending party which is chump change for Brunswick; the Bravo 4s will continue into production; and the lawyers will walk away with millions (sorry JMD)

Ah yes. That jogged my memory Bruce. I thought there was another B4 discussion earlier. We were frustrated that Merc would advertise and test a Bravo 4s drive using a Cobalt yet Cobalt won’t offer that option for consumers (currently) . Bbp brought this up in a B4 thread located here.
