Getting in the 100's for under $65k?
Is it possible? Im looking to add a second boat to the stall and have been looking and researching. Id like to have something thats incredibly fast as it wont be a family boat. Thats what my cobalt is for. Im looking for something that I can take out and stretch its legs on calm weekends and something that is going to get me used to the power and handling of a performance boat before i step up to a larger craft.
Itd be used on grand lake here in oklahoma and would like to make a trip or two over the summers to LOTO and havasu just so i can see what its all about. So id like to have something thats easy to trailer and preferably single engine (i dont think twins would be an option for my price range) in the 28' + range. Is there any companys out there marketing boats like this or am I just wishful thinking? Id really like to get into a cat because ive heard that they really will renew your love for the water. I want something thats really pretty plain so that I can add my own stuff to (paint, stereo, accessories) stuff like that. Any ideas? Can you guys push me in the right direction? Feel free to tell me im bein a jackass if you think im undershooting my price for what i want. |

I have been playing with this idea aswell.
I would set my sights on something like this. http://www.offshoreonly.com/esvon/page-5776.html :drink: |

Wow, thats an impressive ride but Im really leaning towards I/O's.. I like the idea of being able to supercharge it or change stuff around.. i know u can do mods to OB's but my preference is in the i/o's... thanks for the responses.. and the pictures!
