Sounds like a lot of nice work on that boat. I have seen 68 gps on this one as it is with 75 gallons of fuel and 3 aboard but the steering needs replaced with hydraulic as it was squirlly and I dont care to do it again. It made me think 70 to 72 maybe with low fuel and solo might be realistic ??? It has a 26B prop now and turns 4800 loaded like described above and I am being advised it would pick up a good bit with a Mirage instead. I don't think I will waste any money playing with props on it this summer as it is faster than it is safe right now anyway.

I know this boat, it belonged to a friend of mine. I agree you got a great deal. It was one of the nicest 240 sports I had seen in a long time. I told him he was crazy for selling so cheap. Sounds like a fun project, boat was pretty fast with the blower motor in it. Enjoy it!

Around here I think the blower scared people of but I've had so much of that kind of stuff that it was a plus for me as I'll sell the motor off likely this winter and use the money to help fund the changes it's going to go through.

My question is will the nearly 300 lbs. removed -vs- original and all of it being that far aft create and awkward handling issues that migh be difficult to overcome. I just know some time goes into the hull designs to create the balance that they leave the factory with.

I am looking for a fast stable cruise speed of 65 ish. and if it would break 80 with me and light fuel once in a great while that would be a fun too but not the goal.

I know there is better platforms for going fast in a single but I was buying new Baja's back when my 88/240 was new and I just like the look of them and have finally been able to find a cherry hull with my favorite colors of white/black/red/ light grey so this is the one......period.

In short I want this back and to put it in that.

If you intend to stay with the stock bravo in any configuration, you might consider throwing some of that cash at full steering system and some K-planes. And for sure keep that drive in the H2O.. Rich

Do you have any pics of the hull strengthening? Or just the boat in general?
