It will be interesting to see how well it runs on twins. The 47 can't weigh significantly more than the 45' Kid boat does and it runs respectably.

I've seen weight estimates of 18,000 to 22,000 on 47's (with cabins). They are heavy sum*****s.

18K is probably about right for one dry with no junk on board. 22K is fueled and "junked". Both Kid and Quick were raceboats so they should weigh quite a bit less. The only twins that would push a 47 pleasure would be Lycomings

8V72's would work
