What did they do to interior? Still pink on pink? Why the 39 and now 38??
IMO ... it's hideous
Of course it is a cool boat and would love to own it with or without the 496HO ... but 3 things 1) not for $315K 2) it would immediately go to paint shop to match the new gray dash and 3) 496s yanked / sold / blower mills added

I don't know about the cabin. That would've been a lot of coin to dump into re-doing the whole interior of the cabin and would've made it harder to re-coup the money.
At 315k it is by far the cheapest 08 38 gun you'll see in the near future.
If you saw the pearls in the sun you guys that hate the pink might change your mind. Remember, I thought this thing (as well as the original) was completely hidious. But I've changed my mind on this one with the new paint. I think the new paint tones it down a lot and hate or love the pink, this boat is going to stand out at any poker run or event! And nobody will call you gay with 4 hot chicks rollin' on the boat with you....Just no sausage fest, sword fighting, boys trips on this one!
And I agree it'd be a hell of alot better with some Zuls or at least merc 600's or 700's, but remember, the 496 push it up near 80. They are warrantied for 5 years!! Easy on fuel consumption, plus you can put 87 octane in, and they are closed cooling. I think the package may actually meet someones needs. While alot of people will be running their blown motors at 65-70 mph to go easy on them, this boat can be WOT for an hour at near 80. Just food for thought. And for another 20-25k you can throw some whipples on there and get another 200hp.

But, with the Raylar kits you could add some punch to the boat and probably get it near mid 80's. And, as you said, run the guts out of it all day! Actually, run the guts out of it until the warranty expires, then call Ray!

Phil has a set of Zul 650's ready for the pink boat for 40K installed/ dialed in. Boat will break 100 so that is the way to go on the pink boat.

My buddy bought the 07 OSO TG with 525's in October for 250K as an all white hull. He added 20K in paint and loves the boat. It has warranty, 525's and had about 75 hours on it.

Yep, he's got the Zuls sitting in the shop waiting to go in for a buyer
You'd look good in it bro!By the way, what does the old OSO boat look like now?

Blue/ Orange(Metallic Copper actually) done in a hurricane graphic. I have to get pics off my other computer. Boat looks great and was painted by Guardino (mispelled).
