Thanks for the read. Always exciting to hear about new badazz boats.

Theres not much good info on these V16s maybe you could write an article about them and the other nice looking engines they offer. In person at Miami they sure looked sweet though! Looking forward to hearing how they perform.

Those are ASD10 Drop Box Drive Units. These have the dual rudder fins instead of a single rudder fin

Noooo chit !

But what are the advantages of two over the extra drag it creates ? Or is it simply for better directional control and to get nice clean water to the prop ?

I got that, but I figured they had to be numbered as they came out of the mold. I guess you can call it any number you want (could lay up #17 as 2013, then #15 and #16 as 2014.)

Yeah, technically speaking, the 14th boat built is the 14th boat built. They just played with the numbers for fun, I think.
