Dreading racing Taz down the river i only have an XR2!
Captain get a 70HP Rude at least I will beat someone then! Wont cost a pretty penny either. However seems a shame to buy a new boat and put a £1.99 engine on it have u seen this?

A bit over budget but i quote "Hi Speed Outboard Motor suit DIY boat builder!"
You might need to run tripples though when against the tide!
Good luck searching Captain will keep my eye out for you.
