Any BT owners know anything about this one?
 
http://www.teamshogren.com/pre-owned...d-cockpit.html

I started a thread in general discussion with noone knowing the vessel.

Go read post #50 in the next BT thread labeled "COME ON Let's see your BT pics" or something like that. It is discussing that boat. Good price but will need some TLC I guess.

Call Bob Jenkins at the Black Thunder Factory 573 221 3311. He can tell you more about this boat and how it was treated. Also, call Greg or Scott at Shogrens and ask them why the owner traded it in. Bob will tell you the info on it. If you are in the market for a BT, Bob also has a 97 430 sport cruiser that is immaculate. Fresh 500 hp's etc.

That is a nice looking boat, looks to be in very good condition. Not knowing much about BT, is that a good model year or were there known issues within that year or 43 model?
I wonder how it runs now with the new set vs stock?

Post #50 shows a 46, this is a 43. I read through the entire thread and found nothing on this boat. Any chance it was a different thread?

Spoke with Bob. He hasn't seen the boat in 6 years and couldn't give much info other then it used to be in Luoisiana.

looking at the pics on shorgrens site....the port side drive oil bottle shows the oil to be a bit milky!

THLWL 06-17-2009 11:09 AM

Sorry for confusion. I meant the "Any new boats for 2009" thread. go and look at post #50 there. And drive bottle is milky in 1 pic and empty in the other - fyi.

Sorry to BDARCHER also - nice boat. I have the 2006 "Orange" one.

the port drive has torco oil in it, that's the color it's supposed to be according to Shogrens, the starboard drive was off at the time of the pic

THLWL 06-18-2009 08:06 AM

Excellent! Then hope all is well with boat. I sure enjoy mine.

If anyone knows someone looking for a 99 Velocity 320 in very good condition, send them my way, so I can take posession of Joe Murray's boat--that's my goal at this point.

LAriverratt 07-29-2009 08:14 AM

I looked at it and talked to Scott at shogren...its from down my way... have seen it in some poker runs...heard the clear coat was ok but not perfect, also heard it may have had some bottom damage at some point but that's what I have "heard". It is a nice looking boat, may need some attention but the all do new or old.

I spoke with Scott arouond June 15, and when I asked about the broken skeg on the drive that's removed, he was going to check on it as well as exactly what lowers are on it--never heard from again.:angry-smiley-038:

:party-smiley-004:I have been looking for the right performance boat for a while and like any info I can get...my knowledge is a bit limited but If I know something I sure don't mind letting you guys know... joined OSO for info and any advice I can get from experienced go fast guys/gals. It has been a tremendous help in narrowing down my search.:drink:
