Bruce the Kingston has a Perkins 4236 80 hp. Had a top speed of about 6 knots..I just found it too slow..I think my problem is that I need some speed...
On the single/twin thing, yes!
There is a Cuddles 30 in November "Afloat", 60hp Perkins, it may be too slow. My last boat was a Masters 34, single 6cyl turbo Perkins T6354, good boat, similar or lower priced than the Cuddles. Much faster than a mate`s Resort 35.
You`ll spend heaps less maintaining a shaft & gland than a leg. Happy searching.
