Ocean Runner 420 and 460

Ocean runner 420 and 460.

20 hp OB ? yes, or no ?

[harrison]

Nah! Don’t be silly.

40 and 60 will be much more fun.

Besides no one will wait for ya putt! putting! around with a measly 20 horses.

PS: On a more serious note they need long shaft motors. Well certainly the 460 does anyway.

I personally would be wanting 30 - 40 hp on a 420 and 40 - 60 hp on a 460. So a from me. If it didn't have the weight of a console and seating you might get away with slightly less horsepower.

Us sib guys will be overtaking you if you only have 20 horses

I'd be wanting 30 gees on the back at least..
It's a weight, handling vs power and economy thing...
Lots of homework imo.

Andy,

Joking apart a long shaft 20 would be doable on a 420 as long as it was tiller steer on an open boat with no console.
A bare 420 is quite light at just under 120kg, coupled with an efficient moderate ‘v’rigid hull, should go well one up. I would hazard with a Suzi efi 20 you’d see around 22-23mph on a good day. Add more weight and performance will tail off alarmingly.

All depends what you’re after really.

Just doing some research for my next boat.
You need to own a boat, before you know what you actually want!

If I wake up in the night, and cant get back to sleep, thinking about what is next sends me off. lol !

It aint coming soon, I need to pimp myself a bit more to get more cash, but at least I have the anchor !
I am reasonably priced for the right women, so come on girls, hand over ya cash, close ya eyes, enjoy, and ill take you out on me next boat ! No refunds !
