Four of a kind (4 of a kind)

Anyone remember the boat “4 of a kind” out of upstate ny? Sank at harbor fest about 20 years back. Had 4 1000 hours motors attached to two surface drives. Was an unreal boat and I’m just trying to find some old pics of it.

anybody happen to have any pics?

I couldn’t imagine trying to keep 4 engines running well, it’s hard enough just keeping 2 running well.

To own a boat like that you have to be i love with it , It had an old custom fuel injection set up in it and he had a lot of problems keeping it running good so he scraped it and went with 8 custom carbs

I saw it at the 1000 Island Poker Run last year. It was about 2 docks down from me. Pretty impressive piece of machinery. I'll look to see if I have a pic or 2.
