Took a ride with Paulo in his BBC powered 86' Minx today.
He dropped in a tuned 454, estimated 425hp, built by "Jan the Man" of Sunrise fame. Bravo 1 drive, Stainless Marine exhaust, closed cooling, hi-torque starter are just some of the goodies. That thing purrs like a kitten!
Biscayne Bay was a bit choppy, so we tooled over to marine Statium to do a test run. He's running a Quicksilver 21P cleaver I had on my Alpha driven Minx.
52kts (GPS) @ 4800rpm
We figure a 23 or 25 P.. possibly a 4 blade...
Any ideas?
