Used to be a guy on the board PSI something. Lives in Apollo beach I think.
Like Cig said at one point he advertised it with anersons.

I think it's kind of cool and rare,,,,,,, rig it and enter the Long Island race!

That was one of 3 made.Neat boat but man the power you would need to make it run.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Good For a nice pair of sea-tech diesels and surface drives.If you had the money you could go diesel for under 100k

Very nice looking boat, I was thinking about it if it dropped a little more. Not sure on the weight but to run anything respectable it would take a pair of 1000's minimum I'm guessing?

not quite sure but I think that is the 1st 47 CS ( competition series ) the original sit down that Reggie raced in New Orleans ( bye bye movie stars), years ago it was for sale with triple 1000's and 6's then someone pulled the motors and filled in the center drive and put small motors in it using the outer drives. it was for sale for ever then the present owner purchased it pulled all the rigging and drives and started a make over. has been for sale in its present conditioned for years. at one time he had some arenson to go along with it. Im guessing that the 3 47 CS he talks about is this one , the all red race boat converted to please, that was parted out few years ago, and the other red one that was at everglades had dealer down the side with 525sc and #3 drives which was a pleasure boat from the factory and was also in there brochure around 1994 or 95. id like to know were that dealer boat ended up at. last time I saw it , it was in Michigan at a used car lot. Anyone know were its at now?
