2000 30 ft. Spectre w/outboards.

im worried if it can handle Loto next summer. Ive seen other Spectre owners post "dont slow down, just fly over it". frankly, i dont have the desire to do that especially with passengers on board. This boat rides like a cadalac in 2-3's but how about 4-5's with the ocasional unforseen 8 ft. hole thinking about selling/trading for a wave crusher.
i sure will miss the speed.

Steve you haven't had that boat long enough to sell it yet!!! Besides you haven't got to take me for a ride yet!!!! After that you can think about selling the cat...

I've heard that a 28 Skater, 30 Spectre at Loto on the BIG weekends will be a wet ride, but heck most of the time it's OK. There has only been one time at LOTO that I was glad I wasn't in a cat, and that was on Saturday after the Shootout!! That was CRAZY WATER!!!! I remember seeing that CG Mti cat idleing along the side of the channel and being glad I wasn't him!!! Or any boat idleing in that location!!

BTW, I saw him from a distance, I didn't go by him at speed!!

Josh, not a bad idea but ide rather try and work a trade with someone.

Brad, that was probably the worst water i have ever seen at the last shootout. you welcome to a ride anytime!

Shane, ill make you a "great" deal on a Spectre

steve dont you dare...i usually run 2,3 maybe a 4th person in mine. i dont care what you have an 8ft hole is gonna upset anyone...before ya sell it give it a whirl. you will have to run a little faster then your used to but once up on top you'll be amazed. 75+mph across 3's is noooooo problem i do it every weekend

the only way i'd go back to a v is if insurance gets any crazier. of ir i decide i'm doing more ocean running.

Jonas

if U are serious i am going to get a 28 - 30 ft cat wth outboards would prefer to take one on partial trade as the wife and tax issue would be iliminated!!
i have a few in the cross hairs,,
the one i want ex race boat skater with full canopy guy seems got cold feet.. but there are many out there,,,
i know selling my boat or trading shouldnt be an issue..
insurance isnt bad either.
and its fast!!

this pic is at a little over 95 with 4 people in boat on the scope poker run.. still had throttle left

Jonas

oh and my wife was screaming at me,, Go faster,,
our friends told me later she said SLOW DOWN..
she gets mad over 80 and its stable mable. rides like a caddy.

she just likes the butliner. 43 ft resin bucket with all the comforts of home the only thing she is missing is a dishwasher,. slow boring but keeps me boating and maried
