Check out the home made extension box/transom. All that trouble and only 400 hp each.

Years ago I was wandering around the city marina in Sarasota .I came upon this old 40 sportfisher with a tarp over the stern and i heard voices .I walked down the dock that said Keep out and poked down to see what was going on under the tarp .Looking up at me was a couple of guys of Cuban descent hooking up some turbines in this old wreck.

.......I try to not say many negative things about how someone cares for THEIR stuff........but this is unacceptable. What a mess that boat has become.

I personally like the outdoor wire loop boxes in the cabin. It adds a home-feeling touch to the boat. One would think the person would clean the boat before taking pics and putting it up for sale.

I believe those boxes would be called FADECs. The boxes are probably PLC's (Programmable Logic Controllers). Turbines are much harder to control all functions necessary to operate. Several years ago on a job I was working, one went into an overrun condition in a test cell and burned itself up due to one of 2 emergency fuel shutoffs failing. That wasn't cheap!
That boat brings a tear to the eye everytime I see it
