We have a friend with a 29 Enticer single motor. It has a B&M blower on it and it runs nice (not a "pig").
The twin 7.4L motors are only 310 hp each so its not real difficult to match the overal power of the twin setup, not to mention less weight with one motor vs. two. Nice bunch of speculations though...

I was curious about that too...thought it was just the Francais version! LOL

What speeds are you getting? Thinking of moving to this single 290?

i thought the name had more punch with a Z
as for speed,just a hair below 80mph (78-79)...@5200
since i dont boat very often,i dont want a twin engine;so that 290 caught my eye...just wonder where the extra 2 feet are? cabin? cockpit? it also has the week-end package,which i like

Awesome speeds for a straight hull! Read an article where a 270 was getting 70-72 with a 502 mag. Often wondered what some big HP would accomplish.

Only been on a 290 at the T.O. boat show...quite sure yes cockpit and definitely cabin are larger. I wanted a 260 back then, came away with the 270! 290 was too pricey for me at the time. Two years ago now jumped right to the 380!
