the smoke-pot option

if you hook up with enough of these buds you could probably forget about buying a boat until next year.

As an option on a new 353, how much are drive boxes?

give or take I think like 11-12K retail on 353

they are cool to look at out of the water, and add a couple MPH in most cases

but they do require maintenence and a watch for leaks
as well as they can be a PITA hanging around the back of the boat

kind of a wash. If they are there take 'em but I wouldn't place much if any additional boat value in them.

What did happen to the Donzi Rick had comming in late last fall? Or are you just on a Formula search now?

Notice I did not mention any of the "beaked" variety.
