Gulp

Considering my old 150 Johnson of a similar age did around 2.5l a mile, god knows how much of a drink problem that will have.

I bow to the petrolators big brother.

Yes but think of the ride forget adding Nitros oxide to a big 2 wheeled kwak or Suzi, open the trottles on this and enjoy. We should buy it betwen us and see how long someone can drive it before being thrown out I suspect Matt (Nos42) would make a good test pilot for this.

A mate and myself had the same lump in Johnson guise on a 18ft Phantom years ago. Spinning a 26"P Cleaver, it would do 70mph. Hairy stuff though. The guy is refering to a Marshan, which was very Phantomish.

I nearly bought that Osprey about three months ago. He just doesn't seem to be able to sell it. Didn't in the end (dispite him agreeing at £4k) - its in a state. The thing that really worried me was some massive cracks in the transom which he said would be fine. Not sure I'd want to risk it with that big lump on the back....
