What are you doing, dredging with those motors, sitting in the 1 spot and stirring up the bottom. Anyway the most ridiculous set up in the world for so many reasons

there are MUCH better ways to power a work barge ie. large slow swinging prop and a good low rpm diesel......power from torque = efficiant OBs are desinged to provide power at speed, their small fast spinning props pretty useless at slow speeds. If draft is an issue like in approaching mud banks ect put the prop in a tunnel drive set up. or maybe i'm just over thinking it......

my 60 horse rude can beat you LIKE A BOSS

Let's just put couple grand motors in a mud pit and see if our redneck buddies can pull us out

Must be fun doing maintenance on those

@monsterman21897 Id hate to know how many gallons a hour that fkr guzzles
-
i bet u smarter people like me ^^ are laughing at these people so bad atm
cuz whem u have that many motors on a boat it displaces so much water that the water cant refill the lost water and your blades will be trying to push the boat through bubbly water which will give you a really crappy acceleration. it wont give you extra speed cuz this isnt basic math ^^. all it will do is in about mid speed it'll give you better acceleration.

thats sick but i have a question.wouldn't it use less fuel and give you power if you got a big block v8 engine and modify onto the boat?
-
i want it
-
And you would prefer this above 2x1000hp diesel's because???
