Our sailboat has a plain old Volvo Penta marine diesel.
Rob I’m jealous! You have the best of both worlds. A Sail and a Power boat! I previously saw your avatar and was wondering about the sail boat.
For right now I have been living with the old saying... “don’t own a boat but have a friend who owns a boat.” It’s a nicer way of saying let your friend pay for the boat but I can still enjoy it.
Take care
Jeff

I saw the Porsche boat in GQ magazine. It reminds me of a smaller version of the boat from the movie The Island. Not as an exact look but as far as a similar design.
