Y2K 30' with outboards

Does anyone that you know of have one of the new style Y2K's ( top & bottom) running outboards?? Do they even do the Y2K top in an outboard version? Would want a full transom with bracket, but looks like the swim platform extends...

Austin i believe SUPERBOAT can do a Y2K in outboard style, with the swim platform off the mold. Rick the production shop boss will give you all the details !!!!!

It can be done. JC will try to sell you the shortened deck model (no swim platform). I'm sure a B- Bracket would fit under the swin platform. Give Cohen a call at Superboat. 631-226-1761

The platform makes the hole boat. Like rick said keep the platform and put the bracket under it. That would be the way to go.

Yeah, wanted to see a picture of it already done. Not ready to phurchase anything until next year... have never seen(or heard) of a Y2K with outboards. I want to research all options to see what is best for me. I hear general numbers concerning OB boats in the 28-30 range, but seems that very few people have them, I trying to find someone who does, so I can get their "fisrt hand" experience. But, like I said, I'm not ready to buy, so calling the factory to see if it's possible is not of interest- I want to see and talk to someone who already has one.

I actually called superboat for the same set up. I was thinking the Y2K with twin 300x's would be a SWEET ride. According to John the owner of superboat 1 has been built but the guy rarley runs it. I would like to get my hands on it!!! He has 2.5's on it and it runs around 80mph according to John. He said that a bracket can be done but i guess my thought was to chop off the swim platform and just go with a B-Bracket which basically still gives you a swim platform. Also with the outboards and these boats being custom, my thought was to move the sunpad/hatch area back to get more cockpit room. I don't have any pics but would like to see some myself. John did say that the Y2K with a 496HO would be more Bang for the Buck though which I can see that side as well. GOOD LUCK!!!!
