Not really, I mean there are some good parts there but not a ton of money. 3's won't ever sell and unless he has receipts for the motors those are about 5k a piece. Looks nice but the other thread says the hull is damaged an that is why he stopped using it. Also says it runs mid 80's?? Should be faster than that at 850hp

If you have the ability to do your own work that's a buy...It costs to build engines like that and there is a ton in parts there..would be a great project boat as to make a mistress run like that would cost tripple what that boat can be had whole...

I gaurantee that boat can run 90 if the lower is accurate... my buddy's 41 Apache ran 85 with full cabin and 850's and it was a tank at around 13,500 or more

Would you just turn the keys and run motors that have been sitting for 10 years? I'm just saying it still needs quite a bit of work and $$ invested to be a useable reliable boat. And even trs sell easier then 3's. It does have a lot invested in it but it is going to be a big project.

I am however known to always come out on top when I make a deal...... I never buy something I can lose money on if the idea is to make money keeping something for myself is a different story I am willing to lose money on things for myself

Myself as well. I just don't see the $$ in parts that will sell off that boat. Power is nice but how much will it bring? Ever try to sell 3's? Or used headers?

Not at 25,000..... but....if you have the ability to buy it and fix engines and such yourself as I do. Its cheaper then building one that came stock and make it run in the 85-90 MPH range is my point... for a parts boat I would have to get it for 15,000 to make anything worth while

If I bought a stock mistress for 20,000 and wanted it to go 85 MPH... I would have a lot more then 25,000+10,000 o make it seaworthy again.
