Ricks list of jobs. Builder/designer/salesman/internet support/superboat TV director and producer. Not just a F/N fiberglass guy. Not to take anything away from John. John can be alittle rough around the edges some time and tough to deal with but in the end you will be happy you bought a Superboat. Mine is now 10 years old and has some power in it and has no sign of any stress cracks. In this economy superboat is still making boats. True sign of a great boat. Thats more than I can say about fountain rite now.

Fun part was, it was in front of Sean. I feel like giving up sometimes.

One of the main reasons I went with a superboat was because of all the posts of builds Rick has done over the years, the guy builds boats like a rock, answers every ridiculouos question I have and you can tell, enjoys building the boats
I still say a superboat reality show would make big money!

Superbabi I have a Troy Denis built 502 roller motor , it pushes my Pantera { heavy without steps } 80MPH GPS with 50 gal and two people !
I'm hoping I'll still see 80 in the Y2K { lighter with steps } and I'll be good , Till somebody passes me then we'll see !

Either way , the original plan was to buy JC's and pull the 496 and set it on the floor . But if I have to i'll buy without motor !

So you have a motor. I would decide now on how fast you want to go. Not all 30,s are built the same. Some are built old school and not rated for big HP, others are. I think the difference is coring. Cored boats are stronger and cost more. Maybe FX can elaborate more. I know a few years back John had some special going for like 50k you could get a new boat, I know that 50k boat is not built the same as Garys Superbaby.

2005 Superboat Y2K
|
Let's see, I hear JC has a new Y2K w 496 for mid $60's, no trailer. I had a similar tough time suggesting a price for my '05 w496.
I offered it at $50 w trailer, nice stereo, and solid history. The used 496 is worth anywhere from $5-12K, making mine a bargain, if you want to come to Texas to get it (and I've even offered to tow it to the NE before Turkey-day). The Y2K is still the best bang out there in its size class, no doubt. Good luck in your endeavors - boaters and go-fast enthusiasts are known for their devotion and opiniions about what they own, but a good friend once told me:
I know you love that boat, but does it love you back?
Think about it and decide what you want for your water conditions and be sure to really think about how much time you want to spend in the boat rather than working in the boat.
Good Luck!
