Thats my old boat , I sold it to a guy in Florida, Its a great boat , handles rough water great , not as slow as everybody thinks, not bad when it was flat out , I guess the only thing of concern would be crappy gelcoat on the bottom , it had a few blisters, It never really bothered me , but it was a little bumpy, I think the guy I sold it too put newer motors in it , My wife is pretty pissed off I sold it, She will get over it sooner or later. I now have a 37 aronow V-bottom for sale , Hull only , $ 12K , its very , very nice.

Please send me info on the 37 Aronow and pic's to [email protected].
I kick my self in the ass for not buying the 42 Aronow raceboat that was on ebay a while back with no power.
Anyone know anything about it.

Cheese,
I posted this over at Scream and Fly as well . . . I believe the bottom of your 37' Aronow was blueprinted by Julio deVarona at Scorpion Powerboats in Miami when the boat was new. I knew one of the guys who took it to him to have the work done, and as I understand it, blueprinting is basically fairing and truing of the running surface; removing any hooks, imperfections, defects, etc. I don't know about it running 125 MPH, but I do know the guy who took it to Miami and rigged and ran this boat back in the day and said it was FAST . . . definitely 100++. Good luck with the sale!

Well back to this 27 Aronow cat, when it was rough out , it rode even better, but when it was crazy rough and windy ( a typical long island ocean day ) thats when it was really amazing, when everybody is getting the crap kicked out of them( I don`t care how big the boat was ) the Cat would like just get boosted and take off ,I mean it was the greatist. no B.S.

How do they handle, scary to turn with, or if you drive pararell with rough sea?
