I can really sympathize with the Canadian Swimmer!  1f453.png

 

Last pic:  was that how the boat was designed or was it just cheaper than replacing the original one big engine inside the hull?

I think I’m partially distracted by how the guy dressed as a Wehrmacht soldier walks up to the house.

I ended up looking at boats with multi-outboard engines for way too long. To me it looks like it was built for multiple outboards. But the ones I saw on the internet had 400, 425, or 450s. These are 250s? Maybe that is why he could fit 8 instead of the 'normal' 4 to 6. But I have no idea hahaha.

 

Edit:
Its a drug smuggling boat (2000 hp lol)

Thanks!  I know that feeling!  😄 

 

I didn't even realize that it was an inflatable, I just saw that cabin in the middle and thought that it was some kind of tow- or work-boat.  Looking at the gunwales with new knowledge, it seems more obvious!  😄 

 

When did Snopes get so full of advertisements???  I "opted-out" of them sharing my information.  :hmm 

 

This is a much more dramatic pic of that boat, or at least the top photo is. (from Snopes).
