Approx 11,500lbs. On the triple comment with proper hull design and proper wight distribution different things can be achieved speed being one of them. A newer 52SL with staggered 1075's runs conservativley 120mph and the triple version conservativly 135mph. Both full cabin loaded to the top boats.

I wouldn't mind having a tripple 600 boat of this size (I think it makes a lot of sense), but I'd want Arnesons!

While I've always agreed with what you're saying, to a certain degree the lower maintenance intervals and problems associated with smaller power might offset that of the increased issues with two engines with 'big power'.

Of course, no offense meant to this boat...I can only dream of owning such a master piece and "wouldn't kick it out of bed" if I had a shot at it.

im not questioning your information but when i look up an epoxy hull 46 limited on outerlimits website it lists a weight of 12k lbs. how does a 51 with more hardware (extra drive and engine) get lighter?

I'd be happy with the bravo boat with 600 SCi's. I’m easy on the throttles out of the hole and don’t run the boat WFO very often.
I just did oil changes on the 500 EFI's a week ago and it's not that big of a deal to do an extra motor when I'm already in there doing it. Drive service I did over the winter and bought the gear lube by the five gallon bucket. I’d bet I filled up the drives faster with the bucket than most people with six bottles and the plastic pump. The winterization was harder due to the generator, AC, fresh water, hot water heater, two sinks and vacuflush. I like to do my work myself and when I have questions get help from a certified mechanic. I guess in our area that’s what’s nice, help isn’t very far away. I can't get away from the added expense of the parts for the extra motor. It is what it is.
The cruise and idle speeds are very nice.

I really hope you're kidding....don't post things like this, then some bonehead will legitimately think you need a captains license to own one...
Captains License is for charters and business operators ie if people are paying you to take them out. It really has nothing to do the size of the boat..More of a liability thing...
