It would certainly be a collectible item for any 928 enthusiast, but the price is pretty steep.
Even if you have the cash, you could get a lot better and nicer boats for that price.

I knew it wasn't cheap to make Porsche power but 550k for 500hp, 1000plus per hp!

I guess I'll just write him a check for $400k, la-de-da
That's just too stinking funny!

Normally aspirated with those funcky exhaust logs.....550 HP ??? I do not think so It is a basically stock S-4 engine now if it has TWO ENGINES maybe ....Anderson had most of those bits at one time a guy found a marine motor and put it in a car traded the boat stuff for car parts .....just S-4 performance nothing special.

IIRC I remember seeing a picture of a twin turbo 928 engine built for a boat in the porsche museum. Looked kinda like that one.
