We built it with a 5.0 carb motor, and after the first season the owner asked for more speed. We fitted a fuel injected b/b, (454 mpi) making it into a 70mph boat, and it was brilliant, but he still wanted to go quicker, although he terrified his family and friends in it and mostly boated solo.
As far as I know he went through a divorce, and currently works in Germany. He did ask a couple of years ago if we could convert it to an outboard, but haven't seen or heard of him since. He's up to date with his storage charges though!
Is this the guy I knew from donkey's years back, I worked at British Aerospace with him? what was his name?
