Tired arguement...if properly set up...hard to imagine a twin would ever be as efficient as a single...ALL things being equal.

Every boat test where they tried it (and there's only been a few as it's almost never equal)...the single edged out the twins...find those tests you say?

Sure I can't.... otherwise I would post the link...but the articles by the top writers for all the yachtie mags or manufacturer's seem to think singles are slightly more efficient...AND all the other costs do add up over time owning twins.

Of course this is more of a theoretical discussion than what most people will encounter in reality...because finding 2 identical boats for sale, setup properly with exactly the same hp...etc...etc...good luck.
