Default Bravo strength

In a 42 cigarette with triples how much horsepower could bravo ones with drive showers handle.

On that note, maybe OSG can tell us which mods he did to his drives to hold up to the bigger power. I think he only lost a U-joint.

Trips wow your committed I imagine Bravo XR's would handle up to 700HP easy if you are carefull getting on plane.

I am not big on trips however, a lot more maintenance and opertional costs for minimal performance gain. One drive fights the other and all. Your insurance agent might also have a nice talk with you when you say triples!

Take it very easy then.
Is it a Revolution? That is the only boats I think would be configured that way (3 engines and Bravo's) because I was basing my triples/XR statement on a #9800 Tiger not a much heavier Revolution.
