There are a lot of little things that are done right on that boat. It's usually little things like round door knobs instead of levers and sharp...
Thank you. Looks good. Could pull an engine and slap in a replacement without too much muss and fuss. Congrats on the fuel consumption...
Do you have a photo of the engine installation that you could post? 2.3 litres per NM. Is that the total fuel flow or per powerplant? Not trying...
