Ha Ha--so true. Just think of a 37 foot boat with 1200 horsepower or a fifty footer with 2400. One video I saw showed the 37 footer doing almost 70 mph and I believe I saw somewhere that the one with four pictured was a 50 footer that could do close to 90 mph. Some interesting videos out there if you Google these engines. --Bob
