That was pretty quick getting it up and running. It must have been in way better shape than the seller let on. I remember seeing the ad for months. What was involved it getting the boat up and running?

Yeah no kidding, I think the rough hull scared people away. What speeds are you getting out of it?

well for starters he told me it need some work and sent me some pics any way I got the boat for $10.000 to get it home the trailer needed 6 new rims&tires and for the boat 1 drive had a bad upper so I pick two good drives & I replace the tranys one was bad then the motors they were in beter shape then I thought other than some gaskets and some valve springs away I was to the GAS STATION !!! for speed I'm over prop but the best is 69.5 mph but the FUTURE HOLDS MORE POWER ITS LIKE THE ROUGH WATER !!!!
THANKS JAY

10K!!! Holy smokes, if I would have known he was going to go that low on it I would have been more motivated. That's a nice boat for 10K, even with another couple thousand its sounds like you already put in it. A few more and you should have a nice ride.
