Hi folks, a mate of mine has picked up a bmw sabre speedboat with what appears to be a 2.0 m10 inboard engine and full bmw interior/livery etc for peanuts needing very little work.
I had never heard of it before and thought people on here might know more, I'll get some pics up when I go to see it

I saw one of those a few years ago just after I'd bought my Sport and it was painted in a dark grey colour also- I thought it was epic!! Didn't think they actually did them, I thought the owner had had it done!
Utterly gay, but brilliant at the same time 8)

I'd like to know the modifications they made to it.

Any idea what the SAE HP rating is of these?

I trust he bought a suitable chain to go with it.........and he remembered to file the engine number off. Don't want to get collared by the law after snagging it on a reef.

Thats right actually, just found some info on it. BMW must have done quite a bit to the engine to get an SAE 130hp! The SAE HP rating of a car engine is usually about half of its max HP.
