Some wicked A$$ power in a few of these TopGuns.

Drake, that thing will be nasty.

Q, what size blowers and power? 115+mph?

16'

actually, I have no idea. I think it looks way big in that picture.

Here it is, sans flame arrestor. I have the measurement somewhere in the deep dark files of this project. If I had the boat handy I would measure, but I don't. If you really need it, I can get it?

Just the TBS replacement for Merc 575s. Was around 725 w merc blowers so I don't think much difference here.

.....I know the feeling. coming down to PIB at all? I joined Park Place again, cool spot to dock the boats next to each other for an overnight or the weekend. And you don't have to raft (single slips), private bath, quiet when it needs to be.

Didn't realize you had blowers before. Looks killer.
