Mercury 90 hours Optimax On A Quicksilver 580 Horror Story

That bit in every horror film where the unsuspecting victim, in this case mild mannered Ross, goes about his daily business unaware of what lies ahead.

It’s a bright spring morning, the crisp breeze has made his youthful face sore and ruddy. He squints into the light as he begins his service on a Mercury 90hp Optimax 2 stroke which hangs innocently from a Quicksilver 580. 

The imaginary violin strings start their relentless, staccato stabbing noise in his head.
