I looked at 48 Express with the Yanmars and surface drives also, but Yanmars didn't have a good rep service wise at LOTO, and Fountain was not in business so I was worried about parts.
They are one hell of an express cruiser though for sure! Nice rigs, pretty rare I think.

Bigger AND Faster is always better
 
Here's a fast beast.... 140ft length + 28ft beam + 20,600HP (2 Paxman Deisels and 2 Lycoming gas turbines, triple water jets) = $30M => 74MPH

Very true about the show being in Chicago. I hardly ever go out to Chicago. I do enjoy going to Chicago when I get the chance.
