[@paulmorrow8372]

Shockingly, I think this is done to make maintenance easier over an inboard engine. All of these can be serviced from the top. They have a “hood” that pops up for regular maintenance. Fewer through holes below the waterline in the hull too. And if something goes wrong you can just pull off the motor and drop another on. Often with large inboards the boat is built around the engine. Overhauls/rebuilds have to be done with those motors in place many times.

[@rc-t3k]

That's about it, showing off, these boats are strong and pricey to operate too.

[@VanquishedAgain]

​@@paulmorrow8372not a chance in hell. It's done to save money on initial purchase and space. Two inboard motors especially on a 70 foot boat would be much easier to maintain. But it takes up space and would probably 20-30% more for the same output.

@@DurzoBlunts that's not really relevant and not really an absolute... 1: we're obviously talking about planing hulls 2: more of a guideline because it's well documented that boats due to their hull design can exceed that formula by a handy margin 3: it's about diminishing returns and not an absolute limitation (with enough power you could of course send the vessel straight through its own bow wave) 4: more a limitation of the physics of bow and stern waves essentially forcing the stern to drop causing the boat to be pushing up an incline rather than the output of 1 verse 2 engines of the same rating 5: with enough power you could force almost any displacement hull into a planing hull
