Default Yellow Twin OB old school race boat

Was doing some looking around on youtube... Found a video clip of a sleet looking flat deck yellow deep v boat. Looks about 28-30 ft. Someone on the East coast must know the boat. Found the video of it doing the Turkey fun run. Center steering too.

Default Gotto be a Squadron XII 27 conv. to O/B's.

There's definitely some guys who know the boat on the screamandfly forum. Really like it and the first O/B conversion of a 27 Squadron XII "'ve seen, if that's what it is?

It looks like an IO conversion to outboards based on the large engine hatch.

Looks like a lot of the hard stuff is done. I just finished the flaps and ailerons on mine. Will you be using the single intake? You may not be able to get it in now though. I think the 140 will fly it but you will have to watch the weight. Performance may be down a little but once you get her up and moving you should be ok. Will likely have the left stick pegged a lot of the flight.
I'm not putting many bells and whistles on mine either. I will be using an old school airstart amt 450.
