2 motors are too heavy for those boats
The only Dual drive and engine setup for a deck boat that I know of is the 34 foot Advantage Party Cat with Twin 496 Mags. It goes for $158,900.
The center sponson is way too small for a dual drive jet, if that is what you are talking about.
We wanted to use this drive, so we started with a clean sheet and worked from there, using the ability to install a dual drive jet as a threshold requirement.
As far as I know, and our patented bottom would indicate, we will have the only dual drive jet tunnel boat in this size range. I'm pretty sure we will have the only tunnel hull in any size with it as well. It may work for mod-v's well though.
Anyway, drop me an e-mail if you want any more info.
Thanks,

Considering their size and purpose, dual eninges would be a waste. You get plenty of power and economy from a single. Remember it is a party barge.

That price seems to be in the ballpark for a twin in that size range. You are going to pay over 100k for the smaller deck boats with singles unless you go completely stripped down.
Sorry...I meant ther Dual Jet Drive.
I think it's the opposite now. With the addition of the second jet it becomes more efficient.
It just needs an awesome engine
