If you took a FD 30’ boat to the boat shows and when people asked how much hp the boat had .. consider that of all those lookers drove a car w a V8 engine whereas all cars then were available w excellent 6cyl engines. But most all opted for the V type 8cyl engines. No amount of power was too much for these people that are now at an age where they are the majority of buyers of yacht type boats. And also the majority of TF members.
But most all people living in cars all their lives can’t get their brain around a 5 to 8 ton vehicle being powered by a 40hp engine. That’s for cars we call roller skates.
