Not be many RIBs running this set up. Possibly the only one in the country?

Turbo intrcooled, pump turned up. Estimated around 130hp. It’s not particularly quick. 30knots at 3800rpm flat out. And it sounds just like you’d imagine a transit engine to sound sitting at full revs!

Hopefully get some cheap motoring out of it though! Can’t be any worse than the 1.7 mercruiser / Isuzu lump it replaced.
