Anyway, the one I am taking about was a different boat than yours paint wise. Probably same power package though.

Troutly,

I'm not sure if it was "the original" LPE 382 or not, but it is the '99 Poker Run Special with the light/dark blue and purple splashes and big chrome FASTECH logo on the sides, royal flush and Poker Run Special graphics on the foredeck. It is the boat pictured in the back pages of the '99 brochure with a few changes ... the red hatch was changed to white and hatch scoops were added.

The brochure stated drives were upgraded by Dick Simon Marine, but the previous owner went through 4 different sets of drives with the motors beefed up to 950 H.P. blowers. They are now Max Machine upgraded XR uppers and lowers. We'll see how they hold up!

That's the one! One of these days when I finish buying boat parts, I might have enough $$ left to buy a digital camera! :p
