Rerig with a pair of turbines and small diesel maneuvering engines. Diesels set up to power small props mounted above bottom of boat (only usefull with hull in the water), on plane they are totally out of the water. Diesels to also provide power to cold and hot start turbines. If I hit the lottery this is how I would set up my dream boat. Would only want 5 to 10 mph out of the diesels so perhaps 25hp each, enough to cool and hot start the turbines.
, he way be able to rig it for you put a package together or talk to DEAN it can't hurt and he is not that far away and when people have the money in hand to do the work it instead of payments like me over time it goes quick. and his stuff lasts a long time not like so many others that I have read about or used in the past

comes to the customer fat and safe
That's the best single piece of advice on running a marine engine I've ever seen. Recently I changed air bleeds in my Dominators on my n/a 540's. They were lean on top end and and fat in the middle and I was using 98 jets already. Based on advice from Speedtalk.com, I changed the bleeds from .037 to .027. I was able to lower the jet size to 92 and the top end and midrange was better. To run .037 bleeds and jets in the 80's on a supercharged motor is frightening to me. I'd like to see their data from the dyno re air fuel ratio. Sorry about your season.

Thanks for turning me on to Owens earlier this year. Just got done with a nice Dyno sesion on the new engine for my Magnum. Learned a lot and never felt money get taken out of my pocket so smoothly, but if the dyno numbers are correct. It will be worth it.
