Looks like there’s a 72LHP on the back so yea a M6 or M8. Don’t think a imco SCT would last very long?

I could well be wrong but I think it’s a 21’. Either way, it’s impressive.

Those ski racers are nuts! Not to derail but I wonder how deep they run those drives and what kind and how many blade props.

This motor would also be a great candidate for a sweet jet boat project.

I’ll see if I can track em down and get ahold of them.

edit: we’ll, not hard to find them they’re on fake book. Unfortunately I don’t have an account. My daughter does though I’ll have her reach out.
