Owner told me that the fuel pressure guage was indeed the cause of the original fire, and that it had originally burned almost immediately after being built. Looks like maybe there was another fire?? Just guessing here.....

geez...that boat is a magnet for fire...

2nd time...

Any ideas on what it would cost now?

Um... 92 miles an hour? that seems like a streach to me. Twin468's ? Those blowers arent exactly small. And I do see dual dbl pumpers on them but I dont think the wieght reduction from the missing interior is going to let you achieve that kind of speed in a cafe'. I do want it though. After seeing that Top Gun go for 25K the other day I'm all fired up to buy something.

That TG wasn't a steal at $25K. Unless you've done a major project on one of these boats, you'll be astonished at how easy it is to underestimate the labor and $$$ that one can swallow up.

Having said that, if the motors and drives are OK and you're knowledgeable at vehicle wiring, this isn't a mega project.

My guess- it will sell for mid-teens.

That is exactly what will happen also. There is always a guy that pays all of the money for one of these projects.

That is how guys end up with $100k in a $45k retail boat that is worth $30k

Not to say that this wouldn't be worth 50k, just an example.

watch the wording "fired up"

Bidding is reported over 26k all ready.

In the inimitable words of Forest Gump, "Stupid is as stupid does".

Anybody know where this boat ended up????? My old boat 87 burned in 88 i bought it in 99 fixed it re-rigged, painted,converted to bravos ...ran for 5 years ...ran great too...sold to guy in ct very cheap....who had a spotlight fire in his yard in broad daylight????????
