Yes the Yamaha 350 might, but its allot heavier.
I was just going to experiment with this for the purpose of running a single.
If I can't get decent performance Ill probably go with twin etec 175 or twin 200 etec.
It's nothing for me to unblolt, do some composite work, and re-bracket , childsplay!!

Much to consider indeed.

Denny has shown that you can mount an engine much higher than the norm on a VDH hull w/ a
large flotation bracket.

Carl opined, why not make a bracket follow the running surface of the hull as already designed?

How much travel does the jack plate allow?

I saw the new Ocean Master 27 cc hybrid at the show 3 yrs. ago. Rigged with twin 150 e tecs.

Mark said it would hit 50 light and plane off on one engine.

Please post audio of the V8,
