I am stern heavy but I don't look like that until I have 9 people on board. LOL Two, 2.4L Bridgeports weight about the same as a Verado. Put them on the transom and you would certainly have a 70 + mph boat.
Over on CSC a guy had a 300 Verado on a 20' center console.
I bet they both have their issues due to the overly weighted stern. Corky on the hook too I would guess. Can you say Snap Roll.
That swim platform looks deformed and out of place until you put the boat in the water.
