Throttles prob easier to I.d. by a passer by of the next boat these will go into. Motors will be hidden and gauges are pretty generic for the most part. I know I'd be looking everywhere if my shht got taken. Big$ throttles are eye candy that'd b ez to spot. Idk. Just my train of thought.

Just a very invasive surveyor. Good news is the stringers look solid.

That was our Spectre "TOP CAT" had our 1300 hp whipple blown motors, we sold it to a fellow Dave Suddoth up in Colorado. Had B max drives and ran right at 170 mph. That thing would accelerate like a monster.
Gess he had it for a year or so then we heard about the "half off" situation!
ps anyone sees one bright yellow 572's w r980 whipples same color you know where they came from!

Sure looks like they took their time to make a nice cut.

The Outlaw here in OK was a chainsaw job and was a JAGGED cut.... I have a few picutres of it somewhere..

I believe that is the coring material we are seeing. Unbelieveable how they did that. They cut it where the trailer bucks are gapped for travel lifts straps would slid in! Bastards!:angry-smiley-038:

If you look close, the cut is forward of the gap in the bunks,
for the lift straps. It is also crazy straight.

It think there is more to this story.

WTF - Has to be fake! It would have been easier and less time consuming to steal the whole boat! Heck, they got the serial numbers with the transom so they have the part with the most liability anyway!
