Last time I saw it in Puerto Banus, the feds had chained it to the pontoon.
There's supposed to still be a black one up the road in a compound, so I'm reliably informed.

Taz, whats the theory behind the triples then?
you got a load of dodgy money to get rid of?
OR
is it just that bigger (or indeed more) is always better????

I want the boat to run triples like she did when she was made! Plus the exhaust note of 3 thundering mercs runnin up the river with straight through exhaust should be enough to kill most of our local wildlife

this is quite true,
do you anticipate you'll get much torque reaction from 520Hp rotating one way & only 260 the other? how much faster do you anticipate it'll go than say if it had a pair of 3.0L mercs of some description? & how many LPH @ close-on WOT?
interesting project though mate...... I should become a Paver!

Dunno, but for as long as I can remember, I'v only ever seen him wearing the same black, mercury racing jacket! I think it's part of him.
Good old Maurice.

Got an email from Steve Baker yesterday.
It lists all 15 P28's he built.
There was another all blue one sold through a UK dealer that I didn't previously know about. the all black one that went to Spain, and it seems there are actually 5, not 4 with the newer style deck, the extra one went to Portugal, which was in similar colours to Chris Dodge's 'BRUT 3'.
So, all 15 now accounted for, sort of!
