Looking for 23-27 Islander that runs 60-75 mph
I'm looking for a 232, 252, or 272 islander. Trying to find one with a 496 HO or 502. Trying to stay under $25k. Would prefer 252 or 272, but would go with 232 if the deal was right. If anyone know of one please email me at [email protected] or text info to 419-612-5185.

Are you looking for an Islander (open bow) or Performance (Closed bow)?
|
I'm looking for an open bow. The Baja Islander seams to be to only open bow out there that had a 496 or 502 from the factory. If you guys know of any other boats that do I am open to those has well. Just having a tuff time finding one.

I know its over your target price by a lot, but I really haven't seen many 232's with BBs. My 232 cuddy with a 6.2 runs 56 GPS. 75 is a lot to ask for a stock BB islander... as far as I've gathered anyway.

Food for thought: Steve's 232 islander with 320 hp 454 mpi, tops out at 59 mph.
75 mph is going to need a ton of power (My guess in the 525+ HP range) to even attempt a 75 mph run. Plus it would be mandatory hydraulic steering, witch I have never seen on a islander. |
I'm possibly trading for a 2001 252 w/ a 496, fresh water boat next weekend.
|
60mph on an Islander yes, 75mph doubt it.
|
buddy just sold ( 3 weeks ago ) his 232 islander that ran 73 on a hand held gps with a slightly warmed over 502 with a carb
|
Doesn't have to run 75. I guess I should have said looking for 60 plus MPH.
