FF you have a heavy boat. is it a 9ft beam? go 4500, get a low profile large diameter arrestor, I'm thinking 86 square no pv. time 32+- what's the ignition, manifold, cam, compression, just a base line est. to start. drives?gear?wheel? and 700 @ what RPM

do this and be done with it. I don't like scoops either but sometime you do what you have to do.
