The guy that owned the one across the canal is who owned my TS Gun originally. He got the Gladiator next. He was talking to Phil about a 39 last I heard.

How does one need to rebuild motors with only 115 hours?????????????? You shouldn't have to even replace the springs until 250. When I see claims like that it makes me wonder, how many hours are really on it, and if it is true, how hard was it run to need to be rebuild. Like rebuilding a corvette motor at 10K miles???

Either way looks like a nice boat added the swimplatform.

that's where it still is...the owner lives in keystone point in nmb which is the same canal that leads you to TnT and Lipship. that boat is on a lift ...from what i saw this past weekend the boat looks clean and the owner seems to never take her out.... not to mention the owner has a bad ass collection of vintage Ferraris

Baja Will, point well made.I own one with approx 160 hours and they have never been touched or done anything to with the exception of the regular maintenance..Just a good question to ask the seller..Maybe he just went through them for security measures( prevent future problems)...Anyways, the boat looks good...Just have somebody that knows about these motors inspect them before one considers purchasing the boat..

This was his Gladiator. He names them all (mine too) "XSX", which has something to do with his kids. He wanted to trade back for mine after having trouble docking the Gladiator.

I'm pretty sure Carolina built them originally, but could be mistaken. Phil has done some with them, along with obviously Richie Zul.
