Bloody hell that engine's old! If I'm right that's an AQ120, based on the B20 Volvo car block from this:-



Look like it might be the original outdrive too.

it's not pretty
When 1st wave was based in Saxon Wharf the tug company next door to us had that boat. I drove it once, much fun, I believe it was the fastest accelerating boat I have driven. Its as quick off the blocks as Benc Tornado certainly quicker than anything i've driven with a 250. she topped out round about 40 knots
