A 32 B maybe, but the A needs the extra weight back there. I dont know how 3 3.0s would be balanced but 3 2.5s was just right. In rough water we ran 3 cleavers, in calm water we ran an RE4 on the middle motor so we could tuck in and air it out just as well. Put us a leg up!

When I bought mine I talked to Peter because I wanted a 32 , He's the one that told me the 32 would not do any better in the rough than the 28 and the 28 has more top end.. comparing 2 motors to 2 motors.. putting the third on makes a difference though.. way more acceleration..

Hey Bill, your back..

Wow cant believe 115 pounds can make that much difference ? Three 260 hp is 1125 lbs and two 3 Litre 505 lbs . Think about you said it needs more weight back there and it was perfect with three 375 lbs engines (1125lbs) without jack-plate . So pair 3 litres 505 each ( 1010 ) total and the CG ( center grav ) moved back because jack-plates accord to my calc will be balanced the same as when you set it up with triples ? Not trying to be a dick I just want you to hear my logic .

Makes sense to me, only thing youll be missing is the punch to keep the boat running on top. Youll have the perfect mix of reliability and speed!

The acceloration and handling make it worth it. A 32 a needs tripples to run as far as im concerned. a 30 with tripps would be the tits!

I'm with you 100%
