Hey all,
Looking into an older Eliminator Daytona hull, with set back Berkeley pump with Place Diverter. Would be running a 700-750 HP 502/540. Pump to be built for the combination. What are reasonable expectations for a family (buckets + bench) river cruiser? I know that this is a vague question, and I am expecting vague, generalized answers. Would love to hear about results seen from generally similar setups.
I started parts collecting for my BBC build. Having machine work done now. Was going to swap engine into my old Tahiti Super Tiger, but it's a very squared away, reliable, turn key boat, albeit with an Olds. I'm thinking that starting a ground up build of a personal bucket list hull like a Daytona would be a better idea. Better off in the long run, plus would keep my Tahiti turn key in the mean time, and take my time with a proper build.
Thanks in advance!
