Two engines vers One
I have an opportunity to pick up a 37ft wellcraft one engine gone and both
outdrives missing, but I also have a jet 454 engine available ..I was wondering besides the transom repair would there be any other disadvantages?? |

$15,000 in transom and reounting work, and then you'll have a big noisy
spitting boat chugging down gas and going about 18 kts. Not near enough power. "news" wrote in message ...

yep, a jet has about 65% of the thrust of an i/o with the same engine.
Going from two big block i/os to a single big block jet would never even get up on plane.
