Re: Opinions Please
I think the main questions are
1. where do you boat and what are the normal water conditions on a any given hungover day? 2. How long do you want to keep the boat? 3. How fast do you want to cruise at, not wot? 4. How mechanically inclined are you? These will help norrow down your pics |

I can do the little things, but I would never work on an engine when I can go to Full Throttle Marine . They are the best! :D Right now the 1986 35' Cafe Racer is on my "short list". :cool: |

Re: Opinions Please
1. When you say " Rough", How rough 4-5', 6-7', or 8'+?
2. If you want to keep only 5 years, you will probably get more for what u paid for out of the cafe. That really looks like a good price on it. 3. With that engine package you will probably top out at 60-65mph or a little faster. We top out around there with a 35 mistress and carbed 502's, which is heviar. 4. You know how it goes the more the HP the more time Wrenching. Just my thoughts, Goood luck, Jack Jr. |
