Can you please explain why a twin engine setup (staggered) is a prefered setup (for performance) rather than the twin (side by side) engine setup of equal HP & torque)......Thanks

Its so that fat people can work on the motors ?? LOL:evilb:

I think its also less drag since the 2 drives are closer together and work more efficiently behind the boat.
But Yes usually a staggered application, no matter which make is about 4-8 MPH faster with same power.

Yes, Duckys 36 is at Checkmate and is a twin stagger. I have seen some pics but dont have them anymore. XTInnovations is doing the interior in it. The boat is still at the Checkmate factory. Neversatisfied on here is the one that showed me the pics of the boat.

That does make sense since the picture at the dock was taken at the Sandusky boat ram... They do look to be an awsome boat! I did love that blue one!

I just talked to XT by pm a few days ago and he said they would be finishing the interior in the next few weeks, I think.
