    Silverwing I/O

    I'd rather be competitive w/junk I built in my garage than win w/stuff I bought.


    I refuse to allow common sense to interfere w/my boat buying decisions.

    I agree. Doesn't look like a Xr drive to me.

    Agreed

    Either owner doesnt know what he has or has a different drive than in pixs.

    Its in Key West so could be anything....., as in, took it as payment for a debt, left behind at a property......

    Would be cool to see in person. A 700 hp LS motor would be about right.

    That's a five drive, good for about 1000 hp. Parts are getting harder to find. But mercury made lots of them. Good drive

    Always wanted one of those with twin outboards, when Jim Wilkes was building them they looked pretty darn nice.

    I am shocked that no one has bought this boat...... no bs.....I think it would be a good deal. I think that maybe the drive would work in my 27 foot boat and sell the hull to my buddy to put twins on it.
