I dunno. I proposed this as a hypothetical and seems it got out of control. [imagine that]-----lol
I'd think that it'd be something unique. Since I tend towards things that are not the average. [I've seen one boat online powered by a helicopter engine with a jet outdrive]
After all. Where would we be if someone hadn't tried anything different? Rowboats and birchbark canoes?
"At 5000 RPM (considered the upper end of reliability for a stock outdrive) either one of the Northstars is only making about 20 HP LESS than the "lead sled."
How do you explain the offshore boats relilability then.
I know, my mind works a bit slow at times.-----
