Wow.....cool shots/video.
So, you opted to get it all (or most of it) out in one piece instead of removing as much as possible from the block down below..... Would have reduced size and weight, but not time I guess. So.... what are you planning to do with these motors?

It was easier that way. The guys handling it know what they're doing and have done repowers before so I m letting him make the decisions
Couldn't find anyone who wanted them till the last minute... got $800 for them... better than nothing and they picked them up. They were non running

In addition to the repower and repaint and a ton of other things... we re replacing the swim platform with a deeper one and getting rid of the ladder for stairs.
This is what we re going to do... that's a larger alum custom we were docked next to a few months ago in Great Harbor Cay. Great design.

Nice job on the videos. I was watching the Port side removal and there was no music in the beginning. Watching the frenetic pace of time lapse the first thing that came to mind was Khachaturian's Sabre Dance. Maybe something to consider for another video.
Thanks for documenting the process. I wish it was actually as easy as a time lapse video.

In Jacksonville FL
I will measure and take pictures this weekend and post.
As far as I can tell it is the original supplied with the boat by Hatteras.

450 C series factory reman
We re bringing the first one over on Friday to start setting up the engine beds, mounts while the ER and being cleaned and painted
Also have to repair the rear port bulkhead. Completely loose from the repeated banging during the storm the 15' long section of broken toe rail is already repaired and it s amazing how hull side doesdnt even have a stress crack despite the fact it was unsupported and pushed in by a piling which eventually broke.

Did you expect anything less from a vintage Hatteras? About 20 years ago we were heading up the
New River in Ft. Lauderdale late one night after a great day on the water. We were on a 70'+ Hatteras
MY. As we were going around a curve in the river, we lost control of the shifters, which we needed to
make the turn. The boat was stuck in fwd gear and we were headed straight to a dock behind one of
the nice houses that lined the river. We hit the dock with sufficient force to break it up including snapping
the pilings like toothpicks. The shift cables came off the levers of the transmission and the captain must
have panicked somewhat. The amazing thing is that even with the destroyed dock, the Hatteras hull
was only scratched with a few deep gouges. No cracks of any kind to the hull or deck. The main damage
was to the captain's ego. Gotta love those old Hatts.

Wow. What speed will the boat achieve with the new engines?
