blown ph's probably 3.3 liter 2005, fuel pump update never heard of that one (which model?) re-proping? sounds like a dealer set up factory set up issue?? from several years of BRP experience when the E-tecs hit the market by 2006 if you had a repeated issue its because of dealer or operator flaw. also if it takes longer than 2 weeks for a ph swap with brp then somone is screwing around. when it comes to warranty issues brp is no.1 and merc is prob. no.2 being easy to deal with.

Deisel outboards are interesting but I like this configuration better! A single 600 hp deisel engine driving two outdrives. Although it might be a tight fit in a V20.

we've sold a couple of them, it makes a 42' boat drive like a 19' ski boat, and with the joystick, anyone can park one

kamikazi, where did you get those pic of the single diesel,twin drive boat, thats a neat set up, kinda thought about doing that myself(just thought about it, i don't have the money or the boat to do it). I'd like to see more of that set up

:oh::drool:I think I just had an accident in my shorts!:love: I WANT THAT ONE!!

I've considered a set-up like that many times, but never actually seen one. Think of the possibilities, milage, ease of maintence, reliability, and on and on and on.

You need High Speed baby!! No waiting :booty:

It says for boats 30' and above, Looks like I need a bigger boat!! Any one want a 23' Sea Ox??:fam:

Spareparts:

I ran across it on the Dusky website. Apparently they are starting offer a 33 center console configured in this manner. Not sure what woud happen if one of the drives went. Do you think one outdrive could handle the power of the engine alone?

Spare: Ran across your listing of the free boat. Check this one out it's not free but a load of potential.

Those diesel outboards lok pretty sweet. I know years ago they couldn't sell them in the US because of emission problems not meeting our all-mighty, and all knowing governments regulations. 700 pounds is really heavy for a 200hp though. Probably swamp a V. I'd love to have one though.

cterrebonne 02-18-2008 03:09 PM

on that diesel even though its a heavy 200 it should have a crap load of torque though especially if its forced induction diesel.
