A buddy of mine has one. He re-powered it years back with a pair of 320 EFI's w/Alpha SS drives & Stern Jacks. It's been in hibernation for the last 5 years or so.

Have you seen and been on your freinds boat? if so how did it do in bigger water? ride ,attidude really interested 320's sounds very nice and easy! Well any help would be greatly appreciated. Rich
I'll see if he's got any pics. The boat has been shrink wrapped for the last 5 years or so. Originally, the boat had small blocks with Volvo 280 drives. no power trim. The re-power really woke it up. He had cut the X-Dimention a little too high for the Alpha SS drives, the Land & Sea Sternjacks were a patch for the problem but worked well and planted the drives a bit deeper. This worked well for planing. When trimmed out it would climb back on its tail. This hull has a lot of rocker. Top speed was right around 80. Very good handling boat. |
Thanks
