The grabrail on the dash is bigger than the whole boat.

There used to be a 24/7 Cobra running around Holland Michigan in the day in the mid late 70s that had twin 302s

It was a fast boat for the day in that area/

Those 470's were torque monsters and delivered surprising performance for their size. On the flip side, they were pretty much hand grenades. That - coupled with way too many unique parts - makes them expensive as hell to maintain. In summary, that boat is better suited to planter / ash tray duty.
