Default For those that like twin O/B Vee's......

Just got a call from a good friend informing me he is waiting on delivery of this new jewel
It's a custom built, 23' Howard w/twin 245 HP 2.5's on it.
I'd stand in line all day for a chance to drive this thing. Sounds like w/it dialed it ought to be knocking on 90's door.
Rigged w/the best of everything too. Has more in hardware than what my junks worth

Well done sir!

Here is a great link to a thread about it's build over on S/F. Has had various power on it but I think it's just about right as is

Gorgeous boat! I'm a big fan of smaller twin o/b setups. I recently saw a 24 active thunder with twins. Real interesting find!

If he continues pace w/most of the projects he's undertaken since I've known him it will never get wet and I'll buy it for .10c on the dollar in a couple yrs

He and I talked quite a bit during his shopping and my thing was pulling into a ramp w/a well rigged, well powered 24' Skater or pulling in with that monster. Of course the Skater is way faster (might take a decent running one to get around him) but that thing just looks evil and would be a non stop screaming orgasom to drive in a light chop w/your foot on the floor.

There are two kinds of people in the world, those who loves multi outboard V's and those that doesn't know any better.
