Some of you may know that Playtime is having new engines, this is what 480hp looks like in a Huntsman 28.



I am now fully properly skint.

Those turbos look strange. Odd connections.

Very nice! Nice clean bilges too smile

It´s a nice skint though isn´t it wink (I´m still reeling from 4 bespoke fairleads!)

They will do nicely, I reckon I might get to 36 knots. That's plently for 4 tonnes of ageing plywood.

I'd love to build something with a big pre war aero engine.
