    Looks good and more my style too, but I still think the sound of 3 corvette engines at full noise would sound fantastic and it has a top notch electronics package

    I like these but a "pipe-dream"

    Something like this would be a cool project they have a good rep as a cheap game boat and are trailerable, outboard conversions on these are popular in aussie and us https://www.thehulltruth.com/boats-s...outboards.html
    This would b a good starting point just have to win lotto.... https://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/boa...0d60d752ff6c6d

    On that yellow fin boat, where do they fit the 250kg+ swordfish or tuna that they catch? Unless they only do catch and release?

    580 gallons of premium petrol! That is 2195 liters or around 5 grand to fill up here.

    If you can afford the boat the gas wouldn't be a problem.

    I think it might be the other way around, if you can afford the gas, the boat won’t be a problem!
