Default RE: My first gas boat - Comments pls

A hull designed for high torque engine! Well, then this is the hull for me as I will run it in waters which will need a lot of torque.

So just buying a G230 is enough? Is this also air cooled or I need to change the total system? I mean if I change the engine should I change the exhaust canister, exhaust system (which I like the looks) and carbs? (and what else?)

What performance increase should I expect after this vs current by means of top speed. From all the comments, I understand that with the current set up, I should achieve at least 35 mph.

What is the best source for G230?

I also think my engine is not mounted on rubber friction emitting stuff. Is it a big problem?
