Has anyone looked at the various "articles" on Boattest website?

One test they did showed a 10% improvement in Fuel Economy.
So, I was considering putting Royal Purple in my Merc 5.0 MPI and BIII outdrive.
1. So, first question - Anyone have a recent experience with Royal Purple? Worth the additional cost?:huh:
2. Second - What weight would you put in your engine? The Boat Test used 10W-30, but Merc says to use 25W-40.
I am sure that oil has been debated many times before, but I am certainly interested in hearing what everyone has to say with regards to my questions. Thanks!
