You are at 90 plus right now. You need to be looking at boats that are running close to 100. That thing will be lucky to do 85 even with blowers on it. Trust me, it sucks to go slower than before !!!

Boat came out of the repo yard when Eddie got it. He did spend some cash on it though. Had a trailer built I think, Graphics are new. I don't think engines have been touched except for oil changes etc. Boat runs every time he puts it in the water. Been stored inside and on the traielr since he got it. I think it came from yacht sales in Dickinson about a year ago. They might be able to help you a little more about where it came from.

I have to ask why? I have them and think they are great.

Just curious why and what you base your reasons on.

NOT BASHING, just curious.

Combination of extra fuel burn and (so I hear) additional insurance costs. Plus I trailer everywhere and even with a dually, my 38 is substantially more to tow than my previous 31. I like the boat though, I even consider a Black Thunder occasionally but that would require putting in a lift and leaving the boat outside (on the lift) for the summer. I would like our next boat to have a stand-up cabin hence the desire for a BT.

Randy's boat is sure in the right price range. It needs some flash (paint) for me.

I saw that, but the GIANT windshield just isn't me.

I really hate this time of year. All I think about is a new boat, how to fix mine up, how to make it faster, how to do something besides think about it sitting in storage.
