LOL! That certainly would be some serious weight! I'm sure 3 Konrads are lighter than 3 VI's. Superchargers? intercoolers? More weight.....Interesting. A great platform for the Konrads! Nice Toy.

I believe the power is triple naturally aspirated 540's. Nice reliable power with a decent cruise.

That is the original boat that CMS had for sale and Mark McManus did the restore on it. He sent me some pics but I couldn't post them until the owner took delivery. I understand that he is from Texas and owns 6 or 7 boats.
