You have a classic boat, and worth slightly more if it is a true Vice edition. They were a flat deck, and the KV is for Kevlar in the hull.

Boat should do 60-65 w/ 380's in good tune and a clean bottom.

Things to watch for are moisture in the transom/stringers. If you have this get it fixed bya qualified expert in fiberglass boats.

If you upgrade your membership to a gold you can view/post photos. Do it, it's worht it.

Thank you for the information. I guess I am going to have to put it back to original condition. I am not real fond of the purple and blue interior colors, But if it's worth more later on. I would post some pictures, buy the boat is kind of ugly right now. Someone put non-skid paint all over the deck, and then hand painted a thick blue strip down the middle. Maybe when it's fixed I'll post before and after pictures.
If anyone else has pictures that would help in my restoration, please send them to me.
Thanks, Mike.
