Has there ever been any Actives with staggered motors?

1 - 37 was built with staggered 600SCs several years ago. The boat didn't perform any different or better than a side/side.
Would we do it again with current/newer technology? Yes, we would build one if someone wants it.
Do a search for more info. This has been discussed before in this forum.

Side by sides are just a PITA to work on, and I do ll my own work.
I'll search here,
Thanks.
BTW
Seems I'll be boating in bigger water, anyone want a 32 (30) fever?

It was a full stagger. There was also a triple 37 built as well, but that one was a straight-bottom.
Remember the design of the hull. It's specifically tuned so the edge of the step, the bottom of the transom, and the propshaft are all on the same plane. When you go to a staggered setup and try to drop the engines, move the COG, and change X-dimension, you are completely averting the architect's performance and ride design of the hull.

The 2nd 37' AVH hull is the only staggered AT ever built and went to Texas. It was rigged with twin 600's and was a pre-innerlined boat. It did have a great David Hunter paint job with rocks or asteroids on the sides!!

those were asteroids? I thought they were hemmoroids...
