Am just Gona buy me a hull and have. Fiberglass guy make it all new of foam or just wait till something sporty pops up for sale with a pair of 300xs or triple even better lol

Lots of boats started to go wood free in the mid to late 90s. There isn't like a single source list anywhere so you have to inquire about each brand individually. All marlagos are wood free as far as I know. Early 2stroke boats can be bought around 30k. Later 4stroke boats are atleast double.

I got a decent deal on my 01 that was repowered with suzuki 4 strokes. But the 4 stroke boats seem to command so much more that you could buy an early boat and repower with suzuki 300s for less.

It sounds like you're cool with 2 strokes though. There was one on the FL west coast last year that had 300x on it. That's the only one I've seen with them, haven't seen a 300xs boat. The X is faster and thirstier and that boat could probably go 70mph setup right. He wanted $70k which is too much imo. The buyers have spoken and they generally demand 4 strokes. Good luck.
