I bought my boat based on the performance,quality,resale value.Got it four years ago and they are still selling for about what I paid for mine! Sure didnt buy it for the room, after all you dont buy a Ferrari or Porsche for the room do you?

Cobra Terminator 3000
Longest, fastest, single engine cat. Wanted the longest to handle the big water and Cat to be fast and single engine for the cost factor. Plus I needed a place to put a new 502 magEFI with 725 HP and an intercooled supercharger. I bought it to showcase the supercharger and to be a dealer for Cobra.

Was looking for a reletively fast cat, twin I/O, 28 - 30' but did't have the $$$ for a Skater or Spectre. Found this Cobra with twin HP500's and in near perfect condition. Flew to see it and it was all I was looking for, but needed some minor rigging adjustments to really be dialed in. I've changed props, added GPS speedo, changed to GIL sea strainers and adjusted the water pick-ups.
After a few testing sessions, I'm blown away - can't wait for summer to get here!
