NO NO NO.......A single Blown Keith Black HEMI :eek: with a surface drive :D A 28 Super BANANA WAVE CRUSHER :cool:

Of course we would have to offer the usual assortment of Mercury products, but I would think for my own ride in a 28, I was thinking more along the line of a single 572 GM crate engine with the Imco drive that is equal to the #6 Mercrusier drive.

Maybe balance & blueprint the engine a bit, and turn that 625 stock hp up to 700 but still running on pump gas.

A gentleman's runabout with the horsepower to keep you up with the crowds, but always, always reliable. Nice for a Saturday evening dinner ride with some friends and a Sunday afternoon wave jumping trip.

Subtle and simple but making a statement all the time. :cool:

Why the carburetor and not EFI ?

Re: 24' & 28' side by side comparison picture
 

Or you can put a bracket on it and do this. :eek: :eek: :D

Simplicity is best.

Bilt-Rite Upholstery is still in business, moved to Virginia. The buckets shown in your boats are still being produced. I'll take a look in the scrap book for your pictures.

Haven't you been surprised how little things have changed with instrumentation? Other than fancy anodized bezels, the cockpits look like a '60s vintage 707. Why hasn't anyone introduced an integrated "avionics" cockpit and gotten away from all this point-to-point wiring? Seems like a single FMS-style setup using bus technology would be a big improvement.[/QUOTE]
FMS? With a legs and progress page? Doug

G-man....here are some larger bananas for you to start thinking about.....as far as which boat can outrun the other, it all depends on the nut behind the wheel....
