AGREED! I think it is a very sexy boat. Not sure it is the best deal in that price range, but a great boat just the same.

More boost and race fuel I think it was 121 or 125... Movin for a boat that big... Tuned for 93 I don't recall, he just cruises it now rarely goes past 4500... That's why he wasn't a CC

Maybe because the boat sold for $160,000 6 years ago?

Thanks for posting this......had never seen it. Of course, that was 2010 - when the bottom had completely fallen out of offshore boating. Still a good point though.

Jupiter Sunsation

Also keep in mind 12-15 years ago these boats were cheaper than simply what the power alone costs today! I know a guy that bought a triple engine 43 NT brand new for 200K in 2002-03. Same goes for other brands, new 2001 TS TG with stock 500's was 200K yet that boat today is 125-150K 15 years later! Obviously updates or lack of them can severely impact values.

The rapid rise in costs of the new ones artificially drag the resale market upwards as well. Very rarely if the manufacturer comes out with a cheaper line or some type of promotion it can hurt the used market as well. Fountain did it with their "Executioner" series (lower trim level, price point over their Lightning Series), Sunsation did it with their "break out promotion" in 2004-05. Sunsation sold their 288 with a 496 HO and Mitcher T paint for 79K or the 32 Dominator for 99K (twin small blocks). Look at ads today, they are asking 75% of those prices now with 10-12 year old boats!
