Wanted pair of diesels or drives

I am looking for either a pair of diesels under 300Hp that could be linked onto standard drives or a pair of drives that could take up to 370Hp diesels I would consider anything surface jet or high strength z drives as long as the price is right. Thanks

I guess you didn't think much of my advice then .......... http://rib.net/forum/showthread.php?t=36757 more information would be helpful - you can't just bung jetdrives in an existing hull without a lot of work - what do you want to use the boat for and what is it - new or existing?

A pair of the Yanmar 260's are economical and go fine with Bravo's but you won't find them second hand for instance?

Thanks very much I have had the same thoughts as you. It might just be too much hassle to match everything up it might be easier to use slightly less horsepower and be able to use legs. All depends on price! Thanks again
