I have seen the boat rigged with single big block and twin outboards. The outboards really caught my eye, almost bought that boat but was skeptical of the low freeboard and seating. Would have taken some modifications to meet my needs and I hated to buy a new boat and go through that.
I wouldn't mind having one today for running around on...and it trailers really nice too.
You need to sell your Gulfstream G3 and get one of them.
