Raylar LSM 550
Has anyone seen the new RAYLAR LSM 550 in use ? I would think they might make a great replacement in something using triples with modest power. I wonder what a 42 Fountain would do with three of these engines. Three would weigh approximately 1500 lbs less than BBC's which should give a substantial advantage while having no blowers to deal with.
Sounds like a pretty decent package.

Sorry to say but the LSM550's have not even been used in a twin application yet and not a triple for sure. I would check with Fountain, for as in a triple application I would think the CG in an existing boat would be too big of a problem to overcome and work around. Just my thoughts here.
