Help with a staggered question
I thought I would post this here in the fountain section since I know there were several fountains built with a staggered setup and Brovo style dives. I tried posting in the q and a section with few responses.
I am hoping you guys could measure from the inside of the transom to the most forward point on the forward engine and post your results.
I am hoping to go staggered but curious to see what the space requirement is.

Which boat and what year? There are staggered setups in the 35, 38, and 42 and some are full stagger and some are 1/2 stagger. Each one will have a different dimension.

I have some numbers from guys that are short staggered and running number 6's but they use up more room with a trans.

ok from the transom inside engine compartment to front pulley on motor is 6ft8 inches now u could slide the front motor back about 6 or 8 inches so total would be around 6 ft from transom to front on forward engine this is on my 42 lightning with 500 efi and the drive are very close together also compared to other boats with side by side motors just something to think about unless your going to do a new transom cut fresh holes and run it like a fountain if you need anything else just ask hope this helps you out
