pretty cool boat. Nice piece of engineering to get a 'busa to work, but for all that time and money I would rather have a race prepped Merc on the back, pocket some change, and be able to service it.

That tranny won’t last in a marine application. Full power + some air time = scattered parts. Besides, there is not need for 6 speeds on a boat.

Now that’s what I’m talking about…very cool. That’s a big honkin’ turbo for a wankel.
