Awesome Stephens V-drive. 👌 Wonder how a Properly set up V-drive Stephens would go 2day in the Southern 80 .... ? With more Grunt . From memory l think Gods Gift 🎁 had 1100-1200 hp . Correct me if U know . An honest 1600 twin turbo Small Block LS Chevy or a tricked out 441 cu inch Windsor with SBF Hemi Heads twin turbo intercooled ( Whipple Intercooler Cupronickel ) with the best components $$$ could buy would easily make 1600/1700 hp without 2 much effort. Twin Mirror Turbos out of California . Awesome Ride

Gods Gift Was my Favourite Southern 80 Boat

U call that driving . Bouncing the Boat 2 the finish line 😢 Saw Alan Beale the X owner of Stephens Boats give it 2 some guys who said his Boat they Purchased was a Bitch 2 drive . So he watched them drive it down at Patterson Lakes . Bouncing like this one . He jumped in & he was Sensational. Boat sat Perfectly on the water 💧 as smooth as Silk . 😅 He came back & thru them the Keys 🔑 & said " go learn 2 drive " Priceless .

Australia was brimming with good honest fun , the public psych was not belted with woke crap . Old mate drawing a drag of a cigarette getting the briefing from the captain . See you all in Southport . Now they would complain it’s unsafe and damages the river banks .
