Blown Income whats the story?
 

Anyone know the story on blown income. Seems like a fair price to me just wondering why its still for sale. It would like fuel thats for sure!

Yes that is the one. Listed now for under 50k.

If it is the same Blown Income I've always known, and I believe it is, here is the info:

Was originally red and was built as a boat show boat. Craig Barrie brought it to Annapolis and other Boat Shows back then. The original name was Cover Girl and it did appear on the cover of a magazine. They did an in-depth article, which I think I have at my beach house. Originally it had normally aspirated Hawk 572's and #3 SSM's. The boat was owned for a long time by a really nice guy named Ray Clary. I was on boat several times and ran beside it many times. At the time Ray ran out of Indian River Inlet Delaware with Smokin' Joe (43 TRIP Scarab) and Art and Nory - (Return of the Ultimate Warrior 41 Apache). For a year or two, Ray changed the name to 'Top Fuel' but went back to Blown Income. Ray did most or all of the work on the boat himself. He later moved it up on the Chesapeake bay somewhere.

OK Sam. Where did you see the boat and tell us all about it.



This should be good. Carry on.

The Boat was for sale by APM Marine on Kent Island. Drove by and saw it from route 50. It was moved from that location about a month ago.

I seen the boat awhile back on it's trailer when I was on vacation. What I do when I go on vacation is always check out boat yards and marinas, so I stumbled across Blown Income. I didnt get to see the inside, but it looked like a strong boat! It looked oretty clean too. It would be a real head-turner if someone took it out for a ride!

Thanks for the info gents. Anyone know her top end speeds as she sits? I am not bugging the owner/dealer because i am not in the market, just curious cause i love cig's.

I love Cigs too, of course. I bet that boat would run in the 80-90mph range.

This boat was kept on a hoist at the marina in Edgewater, MD for the entire two years I lived there (May '04- May '06). I typically jogged through the neighborhood for excercise, and went by the marina several times a week. I never saw the boat in the water during that time. We ran our boat once or twice a week, and put in a few blocks from that marina, and never saw the boat out on the river either.

I just got back from that marina and it is still there on the lift. Ray is still the owner, he and I spoke about it last year when someone else was thinking about it.

Sammy has video of your house on his youtube page. :drink:

ps- your neighbor posted a comment saying cut the grass and keep it down after 10 please, he has hemorrhoids and it is hard for him to get positioned right to get to sleep and when he finally does, one of you yahoos wakes him back up... :evilb:
