You also could rig a single diesel powerplant putting out 1800 HP connected to 2 seperate surface drives. Performance would be directly related to the overall weight of the power.

I believe the 39' with diesel power ran in the mid 80's.

BTW, these would be your C-32's

Dry weight w/ gear 7000 lbs. each.
They push an 80' along ok.

Weismann's 6speed gearbox would have put you at 100 or better.

Catmando we ran 102 but had a hard time getting on plain. 92 was the best with the boat getting up. A 2 speed gearbox wood do the trick. ( hard time means about 2 miles)

Two miles to plane
