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.

Famous quotes containing the word power:
“The miracles of the church seem to me to rest not so much upon faces or voices or healing power coming suddenly near to us from afar off, but upon our perceptions being made finer, so that for a moment our eyes can see and our ears can hear what is there about us always.”
—Willa Cather (1873–1947)
“Just as children, step by step, must separate from their parents, we will have to separate from them. And we will probably suffer...from some degree of separation anxiety: because separation ends sweet symbiosis. Because separation reduces our power and control. Because separation makes us feel less needed, less important. And because separation exposes our children to danger.”
—Judith Viorst (20th century)
“We know that madness belongs to love,—what power to paint a vile object in hues of heaven.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
