I think they're asking 117k for that with trailer out the door.
You can get it for much less -(maybe not from there), but I know you can order that boat for about 100k just need to shop it a little.

I agree w/ Dock. If you don't want 36 feet, try this:

That's a pretty boat with nice graphics. Sounds like a nice deal if your ok with black motors. -I'm sure they'l last forever. I just love the race motors. The 130k quote for the 26 OL w/600 is high. After shopping both motors on that boat w/other options (SST/SilentChoice/swim platform/dual batts/ stereo upgrade/depth/etc. etc.) the 525efi was out the door at about 102k and the 600 was 14,700-15k more.

I guess, as an owner of an ´06 525 powered 25OL, I can make a qualified (if however, biased) answer on this one.
There´s no doubt that you will look good behind the wheel of a bigger twin Outlaw (for the same money as a new single), run smoother through the waves and be able to take more friends along, too! 30, 33 or 36, they are awesome boats.
But....
It is extremely cool having a boat with a blue motor, that sound meaner at idle, far hotter at its 5350 revlimit (than a 5150 rpm HO), where you know you have fresh factory material,and it was built specifically to go racing (so its going to last a long time in a recreational application).
Its vice free handling allowing you to test your limits, without going over those of the boat. The comfort level is lower, but the excitement level is much higher.
And when you come to insure it, pay the marina fees and tank it up, you are smiling.....
and at eye level with the Cigarette, Fountain and custom boat owners......
because you´ve got a blue motor.
I reckon a 26 with well chosen graphics, a few custom details, an upgraded custom sound system and a 525 or 600.... is a really smart piece of kit.

But my 2004 33 in the ad above is an awful clean fine riding boat, and yes, with black motors and incredible easy winterization with the little air pump. And still goes 71+ GPS anytime, any load, any gas amount, in 2-3 foot chop.

@socalstone. 81.2 mph GPS @ 5300 is my best yet.
Anyday 78 mph. The Imco extension box with 3" raised x really works well on this boat. I run a labbed 28" Bravo and the boat handles nice and stable. Got 80 hours on the motor last season and it runs like a dream.
Overtrimmed, the boat runs a roostertail like a surface drive without losing any top speed........
