I wonder how it would run with a single 565 probably faster and better fuel economy than the twin 300's. Any idea what the test numbers are with the Yanmar, no specifics?

I like this boat. I am continually impressed with Nortech in that they are constantly adding a new boat, trying different power-drive packages, designing boats that are user friendly and goodlooking. Good for Nortech.

All of the test numbers—top speed and fuel consumption at 40 mph—Nor-Tech could provide were included in the article.

I have not run the boat, so that's all I have for now.
