The Conch 27 doesn't need lots of power to push it like a 26 Reg. Many guides in the keys run singles and many have re-powered their old 2 strokes to F150 Yamaha's and with good fuel numbers and decent cruise speeds. You just loose the top end that you would have from twin 225-300's. The Conch is one of the best 27's out there and you will see that from their resale value.
I am thinking of selling my 23 Inboard SeaCraft......Just sayin...
