It's a little absurd, but I've worked on a few 13's rigged with OMC triple 60 and 70hps. As Jeff said, they don't respond to added horsepower very well after 50hp, but the hole shot is worth it! We've removed the hook on one of these boats, but even then the boat just rides with too much hull in the water to really go fast.
Enthusiasm, innovation...I like it!
