Large outboard

I will soon be in the market for a large outboard 225+ for my latest project which is an 8metre Humber. Alternatively 2 decent size matched smaller engines.
Let me know if anybody has anything or knows of anyone who does

I have a pair of 2007 Yamaha F250 30" four stroke motors. Matched set. 2,800 hours, of which 2,200 at less than 1,000RPM. Motors came off 27' Sentry Patrol vessel in Norfolk, Virginia. Currently crated and ready to ship from Southern California. Solid motors, all current on maintenance. Can be converted to 25" easily for right buyer.

Wouldn't be surprised if it was an ex Solent RIB charter engine. Hours aren't as bad as one that was on ebay last week. Formally fitted to a harbour master's launch with around 7000 hours!! Still attracted plenty of bids.
