- 40+3 hiptimco marine. Ed monk
Hi there. I own a 1981 hiptimco ed monk 40 +4 aft cabin soft chine trawler with twin ford lehmans. I'm considering removing the tired old engines, running gear, fuel tanks etc.... And replacing it all with a pair of 60- 90 hp outboards. I usually cruise every other month and travell a maximum of 100-130 miles at a time between 5-9 knots. I understand the weight distribution problem. Just wondering whether this would work. And whether the fuel consumption would be reasonable.
Thanks
Ian
