What is this boat worth with the correct turbines and drive system?
Just trying to figure out if I should throw some real money at it or just look at it.
thanks

I've been reading this thread with much interest. What parts have you got left to find? Is it just the engines?

Yes, just need two pratt & whitney ST-6 or PT-6's. Found one set but he wants 70,000.00, I would like to find a set of cores if possible.
also need some misc. parts.

Thanks for your interest in this boat! I am still looking for the correct engines for it. I bought a pt6-27 earlier this year and was hoping to put my reduction set up from a st6 on it but would not fit so I have a pt6-27 for sale 20,000.00 if anyone needs one LOL!
I will keep looking for the correct engines, I am sure something will turn up.
Other than that not much happening with the boat, still trying to find info on the boat but that trail is getting cold. Not much info out there and the people who have it don't seem to want to share.
I have had quite a few people say they would send some things but it hasn't happened yet, pretty discouraging.
For those of you that want to see this boat in the water again, I am sorry that I haven't got it done yet. Being a one man show makes it pretty hard to do.
