not a downeaster, but my first time aboard anything like this
boat was 60 ft, 3600hp with twin C32 Acert engines
when talking to the captain, $600,000 per copy
1800 hp at 2350,
this 50 ton boat took off like a rocket
burns a measly 150 gallons an hour when pushing 35 knts
I wouldn't want that boat though, pounded at cruise, loud, and rolled more than
any down east I have been on.
sure would like one of those engines though
