That sounds like a boat that caused quite a stir on here a while ago, think talks of splashing popped up, but I could be well wrong so sorry to anyone if I am. I'm sure there were pics and a yellow rib was in the pic too.

You must be thinking of Maltese Magnum II / Twin that was in a yard in Cowes...

Yeh I know the one. Iv been doing the inner and P bracket cutlasses on the 40ft squadron opposite it last week.
Been talking to the guy doing the engines on the power boat. He is ok on engines but is a car mechanic so knows nothing about drives. Not even taken them off to check bellows U,Js or gimball bearings??
