Well, it looks like I won't get the experience of mounting these counter rotating motors. the big boss is going to buy a Pesquero 30 foot....oh, you've never heard of a Pesquero? It's the famous Guatemalan boat...built like a tank with twin Suzuki 115s. The boss looked me right in the eye and said, "Hank, if I get this boat, can you take care of it? You can use it on weekends too". I said, "I...wu..fo...sh...ta...stammer, slobber....hell yeEEAAaH"! Ha. Turneffe here I come.....
 
I have twin 90’s on my boat and it’s not bad at all. Of course I also put hydraulic steering on it so that pretty much eliminated the torque feed back but it doesn’t change the fact that it’s a lot harder to turn left then it is to turn right. It’s till a one handed operation just really noticeable.
