Power
Most models came equipped with single or dual gas engines with outdrives. Diesel options were rarely seen. Fuel tankage was a respectable 100–300 U.S. gallons (380–1140 liters) set in two tanks on opposite sides of the engine compartment. Crusader, Mercruiser, and Volvo engines were available with power ranging from 200–450 hp (150–335 kW). After market engines and drives make their way into some Holiday Mansions along with various stern and bow thrusters to aid maneuvering.

“Do thou, then breathe those thoughts into my mind
By which such virtue may in me be bred

And sound thy praises everlastingly”
