Since you don’t have a snow load to worry about, you could use a much lighter “beam” from bow to hardtop. I used a double 2x4.
Just hanging around in FL in December.. 2 air shows in 48 hours, another one tomorrow...
Guessing they may have been sold over in Europe or just owners that had their boats sent to the Great Lakes for the summer.
Pershing has surface drives.
BTW the other boat is a 2008 Hatteras 80. At thirteen years old, she can be yours for a cool $3M.

I've seen big cruiser boats arrive here in the springtime on the back of ocean going freighters.
But never seen any of them leave in the fall.
Can't imagine the shipping costs. Workmen climbing all over the boats like ants battening them down.
Try & get a pic when the big boat leaves.

? google did not help on this one! interesting!
Not so good for docking. And, you need a huge swim platform.
hey FWIW: I read that a bunch of Mercury drives were considered surface drives. Bravo One XR Sport Master, NXT, etc.
Guess Merc built a twin prop surface drive called the Blackhawk in the 90's. Never seen one personally. Heard of them tho.
