Sea Ray Sundancer 290 Re-Power Options

[Grubble]

And what are people’s thoughts on twin Volvo 5.7 petrols .. essex boats have a nice chris craft with the in

As long as you understand that the boat will have terrible fuel economy and not just one but two Volvo outdrives to keep serviced and that you will wish you had never bought it in a couple of years when both legs have to come off to change the bellows, it looks like great fun when its 20 year old engines are running. The rest of the time you will be upside down in the engine bay trying to get one or the other engines to start and wondering how the hell you are supposed to get a spanner round there.
