Why...replacing 3 sets of cracked headers every 3 years is too much to ask?

I just thought the 38 was not a "deal" and threw in the larger, newer, faster, lower hour and same priced 43 as a comparision.

Yeah that paint scheme blows. I think if you painted it solid silver you might be able to make it look ok. The red interior is real loud but I like it a lot better than all yellow!

So is the price right on that 43? I thought it was a typo. It books for way higher than that. So is everyones complaint just about the color?

Or is there something inherently wrong with the setup of this boat? (trips? or 525s?)

I saw it yesterday and thought it looked like a steal.

If your looking for a 43 its seems to be a steal in my book. My friend has a 43 nortec w trip 525's but Im not an expert. not even in my own mind. I think you asked a very valid question.

Maybe it has something do with it being trips versus just twins. I know thats more maintenance, but heck, those are sweet motors. All I could hear when I was selling the 35 outlaw that I had with those in there is, "let's see a pic of the blue motors". This one has 3 of them!!!

So it seems like the deal did go through that was "pending" and it is sold already. someone got a smoking deal. Hope it's somebody on this board!

3 X 525's means not as fast as twin 700's despite the extra engine w/ extra costs like maintenance, drive, headers etc.

Insurance companies tend to fear them as well.......

I believe the trip 525 43ZR's actually run faster than the 700 boats. Not the usual case but here it may be.
