Rotary in a boat
the boat would be a donzi classic 18
Im thinking
twin turbo 20b air/water intercoolers, larger turbos
I would probably go with a racing style or duoprop setup
running a sustained 6k full boost cruising speed.
My questio are.
can a rotary handle this. Piston engines do it I cant imaging why a rotary couldnt
how would I go about mounting the engine to the stearndrive. Ill probably have to have a bellhousing made.

If you are using a stern drive make sure it can handle the HP of a 20B and the rpms you will see. A boat engine needs a lot of TQ not so much HP. Remember that.. A 6k crusin speed is prob 3.5k above what that boat stock crusises at.
