Honda BF350 V8s

Four Honda BF350 V8s. 1,400 horsepower. 32 cylinders. One maxi RIB built to put them all to work. On board the Ranieri International Cayman 50.0, journalist Maurizio Bulleri takes a closer look at a remarkable quadruple-engine installation, where every detail has been carefully engineered. The inner and outer engines feature different shaft lengths to keep the propellers working at the optimal height, while counter-rotating configurations and specifically selected propeller pitches help maximise efficiency and performance. And then there’s the boat itself: 14.40 metres long, 4.30 metres wide, with a twin-step hull, vinylester resin construction, a full carbon-fibre hardtop and even a tender garage. Before putting 1,400 hp to the test, it’s worth taking a closer look at the flagship of the Ranieri International fleet. @hondamarineitalia @ranieriiternational @mauriziobulleri @hondamarineeurope . #HondaMarine #BF350 #RanieriInternational #Cayman50 #TheBoatShow
