Nice CAFE!!!
 

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1989-...QQcmdZViewItem Nice looking Cafe!!!! anyone know the history on this one?? 74mph seems slow for that kind of power. I'd take $95,000 for mine.

id see the boat behind my condo in miami all the time... nice redo....

buy it now 95k?..... eh..... no

To quote Dreamer....
eh....no....
Need more complete info but I think way to much money.
There was a thread on here a few months back with a guy that redid his Cafe (I think) with an absolute awesome paint job in the silver/purple with ghosts. With the right engines I'd pay 95K for that (If I had 95K :) ) .

Big money for an '89

If I am not mistaken that boat has been on ebay several times over the last year.

I'm luke warm on the graphics and I'd spend 95K on a lot of other boats first. From the soudns of it the engines are now 8 years old....

I keep seeing these Cafe's with big power claiming 75mph, I would think they should go better. I have 500HP with a set of CMI's and 24 pitch bravos and a see 74mph consistantly

I like the H2 tow rig......

I will sell mine for $95K as well.

I saw that thing launching at Spinnaker Marina in Nov. I had to do a double take before I realized it was a Cafe. Nice re-do. 75 with 1200hp...Maybe cruising speed. They'll do 73 or so with 500efi's WTF??

i want some of the dope that hes smoking.....

I don't see 70 with 500 carbs. 69.8 so far on freshwater.


Rebarbox has a cafe with #3's and 750's and I think he see's right at 80 or so.

I agree with you from a conservative standpoint.

I have 502's with Weiand 177's on them and I don't think I see much over 74, 75.

They are just heavy flat bottoms.......

Seafordguy I know your boat it was at my marina, but what is your total HP? My boat is a bravo set up 500 HP Dart intakes CMI's ditched the water pumps and replaced with cross overs. With 2 guys in a 2-3 chop 1/2 tank of fuel it will do 74mph. The boat with full tank of fuel 4 people in flat water will only do 70mph. Water conditions make a big improvement in speed. I boat in Long Island Sound where there is almost always a chop.

I heard the boats run a little better in salt then fresh water? Also the Cafe with #3's is carrying more weight with the tranny's and it also sucks up some of the hp.
