I bought the boat with no power from the original owner in Miami. It was only a year or so old then. Installed 572CI 650-700HP n/a motors with stellings boxes ran around 100 mph. Kept it for maybe four years. Sold it to a guy in NJ that knew the original owner and boat. Never talked to him after that. I last saw the boat on here in 2007 for sale.

does anybody know the current location or condition of that boat??? Also, how tight was it in front on the front engine?? D you think a staggered boat with trannys could be configured into a six pack boat????

It was very tight. I could not even run a blower pulley. There was only about 1" clearance on damper v-belt pully to bulkhead. The whole set up was tight and you had to be a contortionist to install & pull the motors. You had to install the port motor 1st to get to the motor mount bolts and the oil coolers were under the motors. It was a fun boat when it wasn't breaking prop shafts, because of the high x dimentions, and no xr large shafts avalible at the time.

Boater8987;
I flew down to look at your old boat when it was for sale in 2007 around Naples. The back seat was very tight -- I thought it would be good for bikini's only lol.
And your right there was very little room in fornt of the port engine -- I thought it would have been a fun boat for poker runs though. I made the gentleman an offer for the hull and trailer as I was not interested in one bravo 1 and a bravo X. I had planned on dropping my 700's and a set of xr's on it.
It didn't work for him, and I haven't seen or heard of that boat since. I would think that whoever has it now would probably have had to redo the interior as the bolster was showing signs of age and stress -- but the hull looked to be very strong and in great shape.

True, thats exactly why the rear was there, he had a cobra before this one with the rear the same way. That boat ran hard back in the day and very fun but the down side was pumping cam2 before going out. Were is it?
