GS with V6
Here an other toy.
This is a GS with a V6 !
boat is 1000 pounds with engine.
Engine is a V6 2.5 EFI that output 260 hp at 7000 rpm.
This toy pulls crazy and top speed 80 mph.
It is a Italian Guiliani 1969 that I reinforced and rebuild entirely 3 years ago to take it to the track!
While waiting for ecklers to ship my new alternator because of the classic overheating bearing on the vette, decided to take it back to the water to make a shake down of the new mods I did this winter ,heavy duty hydrolic steering and huge hydrolic flaps.
I like this toy a lot but engine burns 15 gallons per hour. means 150 euros fuel per week-end when friends at home.

What, has no one noticed that after nine posts and replies, not one comment about the missing tow vehicle? Surely there is a discussion of the finer points of towing with a Zo7 to be had here.
