Sorry guy's, this video is not really in-keeping with "The Board".
However, these fellows who live near me have really taken things to the extreme. They mounted a 120hp V4 OMC (tiller steer!!) on an 11ft Aluminium Seal Supa Skua. The boat itself would weigh no more than 60kg.

I'd seen those Mercman but didn't realise they were Aussies, sure sounds scary to me but they appear to get away with it.
There are several videos of it on U Tube and I couldn't decide whether to clap or shake my head
Cheers,
Rob

Amazing, almost 12 months have now passed since I posted this subject.
Just recently I stumbled across the Marine Centre who helped these boys "cut and shut" the 20" V4 column to a 15" for their over powered toy.
