Cool boat. A little out of my price range. Did you see the stainless hydraulic pump housing. It looks like it would replace my power steering pump housing. Gotta find one of those.

I have a 25' Steiger Craft that is powered by a turbo diesel similiar to the 5.9 CTD. It is a Volvo which drives a dual prop volvo outdrive (two counter rotating props on a single shaft). Best power package I've seen for a boat of this size. Top speed of abt. 40 mph and a fuel economy at cruise (abt 30 mph) of less than 5 gal/hr. Fuel economy at trolling speed is almost to low to measure. Really has a lot of power when the turbo kicks in. See my posted photos.

Nope, no smoke. Everybody is amazed at the get up & go of the turbo diesel. The Volvo is equivalent to a first gen CTD. All mechanical (200 hp). When the turbo winds up, you had better be sitting down or holding on real tight!
