cheap 36
 

HMMMM. What would 496's push that boat about 65? And how long would the Bravos last? heavy boat isn't it?

It depends on which model bravos & how it is driven.. 65 seems a little fast for that power & size tho.. :party-smiley-004::coolcowboy:.. Jamie

I figured 65 was on the high side. What does that boat weigh?

nice lookin & turn key. cant beat that.

A lot!... lol

I think the 36 Renegades weighed about 10k lbs if my memory is correct.. :) Jamie

How do you know it has bravos? That boat cabin interior looks like the 36 that was stolen from canada? and had #3a's and was never recovered.:eek:

I dont KNOW that it has bravos. :coolcowboy:

I have never seen that particular boat before myself. I am assuming it has some sort of bravo as the 496's he claims that are in it are usually packaged with B1x's or larger... Thats all... ;) :party-smiley-004: ;) Jamie

I once read that Bobby said the weight on a bravo 36' was 9800-10000. Mine has a single 192 gallon fuel tank so throw a couple coolers and passengers in and you are 12,000lbs in a hurry.

As far as bravo's holding up I think if driven with a bit or common sense you would be fine. My 36' has 502efi's on bravo's and run right @ 65 mph on a half tank of fuel with wife, child, kids toys, and 24 pitch non labbed bravo one four blade props. Best i have seen is 67.1 hand held GPS on lighter fuel. We normally run ours around 3500 rpms as we do mainly family type boating and it cruises nicely in the 3500-4000 rpm range.

I take it easy coming on plane and make sure to service my drives each year and so far so good with me.

That is heck of a good price!! I am glad I am not trying to sell mine LOL.

If it is advertised correctly, I would say that thing would be STUPID FAST considering its only 38 inches long. The bow doesn't even clear the front of the motors.

Easy there turbo, i wasn't saying you said it had bravos, acually you did'nt say it did, i was trying to figure out if it had them or 3a's. I agree that that 496 package usually does have bravos but who knows.:gfight::kiss:

The boat has Bravos from what the owner has told me in an e-mail. Owner claims boat runs 70 no problem. I know better but there's no sense in arguing. Seems like a nice stock package though. Not real thrilled with the rainbow bright paint job.

whether bravos or 3a's its still a dam good price. then again add 6-8k for a trailor. still not bad.

He has a trailer but he said that it needs work.

I sent him an email but haven't gotten a reply yet. Does the cabin interior not match the cockpit?

I find 70mph hard to believe. The boat has 20hp more than mine and runs 5mph faster no problem? Best I have had is 67.1 with ideal tail wind and chop. Still a decent price.

Any idea on the hours?

What does a 496 bravo combo cost?

salt water adds a few mph and there may be considerable weight difference between any 2 boats.

Why don't you guys check w/ Sean on the site.
He redid his 87(?)Cafe Racer w/ 496s+b1s.
Should be pretty close wt/speed wise.

The older 36's weighed about 10,500 and the later models 9500.

For $65K "if the boat checks out" that's a steal! That is also a rare boat having the enclosed head.

Good catch . . . .

Mine must be older.. LOL
