Ithink there will be abit more to it than that Maybe playing with half of 406 loom for some will be fun

ithink the Hdi lump will be good in a boat tho 110bhp on a boat thats going to be rapid


they couid also tie the Bsi to a rope and use it for water ski -ing

Be a bit pricey to run on DERV - it won't like 'vin rouge', least not until ultra-low sulphur red filters through the supply chain...

Mind you, I can see it taking a little while to get round the immobilser, (among other things).

the Hdi s might run better on Red
ithink what ever it costs to run it be worth it for the fun,

ihad a boat but it was only a 90 outboard engine it used too run out of steam if there was more than 2 of us on it ididnt keep it long it was too slow

ibet that wouid fly,
it wouid need wings that ibet it dont stay in the water at full bore

With 8x 250HP outboard motors, I'd say you'd run out of fuel before completing your takeoff run.

This boat, if I recall correctly, was built for drug smuggling, and was designed to get away from the Coast Guard cutters PDQ.

Now the druggies are using home-built SUBMARINES:

Maybe it was a petrol engine with a dizzy,
they dont like water much,

derv lumps are not too bad near water aslong as the zorst and the intake dont go near water theyl run under water,

should be fine in a boat, a guy that docked beside our boat for a while had a d-turbo engine in his, was a great job. We worked with an 80bhp ford cargo lump, great work-horse
