I have had communications with a guy in New York a lot that seemed very interested but it dried up and a local guy was coming to look at the boat this weekend but I just told him a few minutes ago that we were going to take the 36 off the market and just keep it. I'm not going to spend $200K + for another boat and we cannot replace what we have for the money. The wife suggested we just keep what we have and I agree so it is back to plan "A" and we will be dropping the big power in the boat in a couple of weeks and see how she runs!
Congrats on your decision, I think it is solid and you won't have any regrets.
I'm sure a new hull would have been great, but your 36 is VERY nice, plus you've customized it to your liking, purchased a new trailer for it etc. I think those new motors are going to make it a brand new hot rod for you, and Mid-90's is very respectable for any v-hull no matter what the make.
