10 years ago I was entering boca inlet. On the way out was an Apache, a 41. It was idling through Lake Boca. The sound it made would put most bands to shame. The white paint with colourful feather paint job glistened. I think it was called warpath. Someone had put their heart into rebuilding the Apache. There is a reason why these boats are still loved. It obviously left an impression on me.

Ugh you have lumped in the engine rebuilds and drying the transom out and a bunch of other work that has nothing to do with the actual conversion in there. The place that did your conversion did a lot of things that had nothing to do with the Arnesons. Remember, I told you that Kolor Craft in NY charges only $5K for the labor to remove the Bravo's and install the Arnesons. You purchased one new drive and one used drive so, let's say that drive to NY would have save'd you over $50K. :D

I have seen a few Magnums running with Arnesons. It's an impressive sight. The gurgle of the diesels and the spray tail as the 60 foot hull tries to flatten 5 foot waves. The tails give it away although they stay on plane. Most others stay in harbour.

the best deal going on top guns by far is the 92 with twin 500 efi's for 57k. probably not going to find a better deal right now and honestly the owner (IMO) shouldnt go any lower on that boat. i have not seen it but it looks to be worth every penny. turn key reliable, and wont break the bank. certainly wont be the fastest, but you will be on the water every weekend.

by far the best deal for straight bottom guns...

I think Jason's is a killer deal. Look at what you're getting, a brand new boat:

Also, the TX arneson gun is sweet too!

Just for argument, what do you think I could list mine at? '90 Gun, all new parts = 1300 Huber Trans, Konrads, Gellner 572cu - 1000s w/ 14-71 chillers, new fuel system, Hardin sea strainers, new transom, new paint, new Gel on bottom, , windscreen, all new hardware everywhere, every piece of rigging is new, rub rail, new interior, updated dash, new Garmin, new hatch like T/S, all livorsi gauges, throttle, shifters, etc, LED trim indicators, list goes on and on, new new new, blah blah.... I don't know what's into it,.... Just curious what market would price it at, if I were looking to sell, no rush. .60 cent on the dollar?
