540 Merlin motor and Merlin grumpy jenkins heads, dynoed 665 hp 700 ft lb torque. I got 88 mph out of it spinning a 30p bravo at 5400 rpm. Sold the boat to a friend of mine this spring with only dyno time on new motor and he says he got 90.3 on gps. Only difference between old motor and new besides a freshen up was a change to BG 850...down size from 1050 dominator.

I've got a bunch of friends that keep their boats at Sea Village. I'm sure you've seen them. 25' Active Thunder. 28' Checkmate. 28' Powerquest. We run over to AC and the Brigantine Cove a lot.
