Default 30 foot superboat with twin 400cu smallblocks

30 foot Superboat with NEW twin 400CU full roller smallblocks, ~460hp each , only dyno hours on engines. Engine components from crank and balancer to rods to pistons are factory new. ($7,000 each) New Stainless Marine headers ($4000pr) , Bravos, two sets props, MSD marine soft touch rev limit ignition @6k Warlock Racing hydraulic steering, this is almost a full race boat with twin bolsters and flat decks. The engine hatch is flat, you can walk on it. Superboats are known for winning races and this narrow beam design crushes waves other boats cannot navigate. the 30-foot Superboat (originally named the 30 Tempest) was designed with rough water in mind. The narrow beam, 7 feet, enabled the boat to cut through any sea conditions like a knife with the handling characteristics of a much larger boat. Less bottom area and less weight translated into faster speeds, and that 30-foot hull outran all of our competitors' boats with equal stern drive power. * Note: 8' and 8'6" beamed boats were designed for maximum widths on highways - not performance. The 30 Tempest was almost unbeatable on the offshore racing circuit, and Superboats has won more races with this size hull than any other manufacturer. Three of these race boats, RC MARINE, MEDIA MASTER , and the EXTINGUISHER, completely dominated the A-class from 1991 to 1999 establishing some offshore records that may never be beat. You can fly the tops of seven foot seas and never land wrong., this very rare setup outhandles everthing, . Two sets of 23p props, mirages and blades. New gaffrig gauges, trim in the throttle, new wiring harnesses, all components are LOW HOURS, Please email for photos. Boat is on a steel trailer recenlty professionally serviced, and is so light can be towed behind a ford explorer. Beam on trailer only six feet.or so including the boat. Very easy to transport and ramp launches like a dream, one person can do it. No expensive haulout/storage fees. Cruises and planes at only 2200 RPM, uses half the gas of the big block twins and finishes ahead of them. Down below are bunks for three or four. MSD marine ign. Blaster coils, soft touch rev limit chipped @6000RPM. The bottom is spotless as are the gimbals and drives. Seatrials available with deposit. Motivated seller. boat is at Northeast Perf Marine

Good luck in selling your rig, but the comments about 8 foot wide boats designed for highway not performance?....

Don't know how long you have been around, but here is a little real history for you.... www.bananaboatco.com. Click on Products and then click on History of the 24 footer.

When people like Carl Kiekhaefer, Don Aroniw and Bob Magoon choose an 8 foot beam over a 7 foot beam, believe me they were not interested in highway performace.

These 8 foot wide boats were designed to run in real open ocean racing conditions, not beach racing in circles 100 yards off the beach.

Charlie, I think the 8' beam comment was from a past advertising slogan. I'm pretty sure I read that somewhere before.
