Understand being AIR cooled engines size is greater than the water cooled PUM series Zenoahs, so ..... finding clearance for it's bulk is going to increase making a V hull mono the best place. Flat bottom hydro's, cats or riggers will require higher placement effecting C/G.
Want those cubes .... get a g260 with the 29cc marine conversion kit on it. This way you get the compact crankcase/flywheel & ignition and THAT top end already water cooled for marine use

You could have bought a zen 260 marine motor or an rcmk evo for almost the same price as that one.

I think a similar motor was used in a zipkits easy vee during early testing and speeds were pretty good but bare in mind thats a pretty small light boat.If you intend using that in say an offshore style 50" hull id think 35-40mph but thats a guess.
