If ya lookin at a sportfish convertible then your cruisin' speed should be around 17 knots; right at planning speed w/ those engines. Are the engines 71 or 92s?

71's
I will hit u up for services later.

N in non turbo or some say natural aspirated . Easy to work on and bit cheeper in cost to repair. A monkey with a lawn mower wrench could figure out the number of valves needed.
