I have a tendency to buy high, put a ton of money into making it perfect, use it very little, then sell it!!

Did a ton of work to the boat over the winter including: powdercoated swim platform, polished and rebuilt mufflers, rebuilt drives, painted them and transom assemblies, powdercoated and rebuilt k-planes, new mechanical trim indicators and gaffrig trim display, all new morse cables, new billet valve covers and billet spark arrestors, new impellers and rebuilds on pumps, painted dash and cabin door, repainted all imperfections on original graphics and re-cleared them, repainted original race hatch and smoothed underside, sanded and buffed entire boat laser cut and anodized grills for hatch openings. Ck Motorsports has the boat now installing new billet livorsi controls, new gauge senders, bilge pumps, LED bilge lights, new manifold gaskets, replacing all dated and worn plumbing, cleaning up all wiring, changing all fluids, new hatch struts, and any other maintenance needed.
Cabin is pretty much like new with the exception of a little wear on one of the seats and although it should work I have never used the head. When the weather gets a little better I was planning on matching the carbon panels from the dash over to where the map holder was and adding a blue tooth stereo and replacing the original speakers with descent new stuff. The boat is in pretty immaculate shape for a 96. I can post more pics when I have the boat back at my shop in a few weeks.

Black Cafe
The black cafe was mine. I bought it from the original owner about 5 years ago and sold it about 3 years ago after all the work was done, dash/paint/etc. I sold it to the guy in NY. It was a nice boat....

That's a great looking boat with a long list of upgrades! I'm sure that's more $$ than I can spend though. I'm kind of stuck in the 50-60K range.
I would consider selling my 96 Top Gun. 3A drives just sand blasted them and sent them to Colebella to completely rebuild them. Painted them and installed with zero hours, they look better then new. 540 860hp supercharged motors with super low hours on rebuilds. new seadeck, all new autometer gauges and carbon dash panels, brand new billet livorsi controls being installed right now. Previous owner claimed it would run low 90's, I haven't taken it there to be able to verify that. Super clean boat pretty much looks like new. If interested it is easiest to email or text pics.
