They were only detuned about 25-30hp during the last build as the boat is now retired living the easy life. It did it's job with the former owners and deserves the rest. Still a barrel of fun!
----The Fino is a twin to mine, color and all. Not tremendously fast as it was and is more of a pleasure boat. Has a generator and full AC. Only 30 ever built back in the early 70s so they are extremely rare. We figure about 18 still exist. Powered by two 390hp 454s it's good for around 50 to 55, but I rarely run it at that speed. Google "Fino 30 Marine" if interested.
----Hope I haven't bored you guys. It's good to have two passions, right?.....Bill S
