The former owner of Mrs.E's boat ended up buying a 1990 GB 49 footer with
twins.
It's not high powered ... 15 kt cruise ... but it's a thing of beauty. He
spent all last winter traveling the southern hemisphere in it and recently
returned to Kingman for a short haul and cleaning before traveling off
again.


Cool.

15 kts *is* high powered compared to ours. We can cruise at 10.5 kts
when we need to but it's much more fuel efficient in the 8.5 to 9
range.

What kind of engines does he have?
