It has to be the same one. Same year, same motors, same gauges/gps/depth finder, same bolsters. Looks like it just had some more paint work. Wonder if it really was converted to Bravos or not

I'd say it is absolutely the same one. Someone had the paint touched up and swapped the drives out. I'd bet the motor pics are the exact same. Someone picked this thing up for under 40k from Phil, put a few grand into it and now re-listed it for 40k more.

It's a very nice restoration never-the-less. 80k nice? I'd take the silver and orange one in the classifieds for that price.

When it was at phils....

I hear 'dirty a$$ filthy don`t bother to wipe them off" drives are high demand.

It's the latest rage, Buy a ciggy put a couple grand in to it, and ask $40.000 more for it.

Major upgrade on the bravos. Hmm, lets take a drive good for 500HP, and put a drive good for , well, 500HP on it. Konrads or 3A's woulda been my choice for a Café. Esp if you wanna jack the price up 40g over what ya paid....

Good looking boat though!

If I was looking to massively overpay for a cafe I'd buy this one -

Or if I had the $ for a nice resto with solid motors I'd buy this (or the silver and orange)
