Anyone using Deisels?

The Mercury #6 is on the Way Too List:
· Way to Expensive
· Way to heavy
· Way to big for the Yanmar Package
· Way too much power loss
Just seems that the proven package that I see Fountain using seems to be a good system.
I've wondered about the single propeller theory. It seems that the European teams still had a large assortment of propellers even though they were using the multiple speed transmissions at the time.

Looks like a great party boat for the cove.

By LOTO standards, my boat's getting kind of small and it's way too slow. I think your lower back is going to appreciate your new ride over the cat. I'm sure your wife will appreciate the head, gen, AC, etc. It will look a lot less akward carrying that kayak with you too.

The Green wing II was built about a mile from me , i think you're right about the 2 1400 hp cats. That thing is a monster, I watched them dunk it after they had to redo the trannies- it seems that a sandbar was misplaced.
