Not sure I agree, you are leaving out half the equation.
the other half is weight . its power to weight. I have oodles of reliable torque & relatively light weight. UD +1 and add to that hull design. My 30 Superboat (32 LOA) is as fast as my 31 Formula (33LOA) was with one of the engines from it. Of course I lost a lot of "Pleather" and a fridge too :lolhit: |

UD I really couldn't think of any of my bud's who'd go for a single engined 30' cat. Heck, I've been looking at an older 23 Eliminator wide body factory triple OB that was converted to a twin OB but still packing the triple set gauges in the dash. I'll only make an offer if I can find another motor to match the 2 and haven't had any luck. OMG those outboard guys are proud of their 2.5 EFI offshore OB's even at their age. All I know is what a wicked river/lake boat this would be. I guess it's the old Texas mindset, bigger is always better LOL!!! See ya, Kelly |
Twins if you boat on open water. I have benefited from being able to limp home single engine on a couple occasions.

I think we see a lot more twin set ups here for that reason. |
