I have the whole "stern lifting" pkg let me tell ya! If i trim these drives like a TRS or Bravo boat it is down right SCARY i mean SCARY. I tried a pair of 6 blades and it felt like the whole boat was bouncin side to side. not chine walk i mean the whole boat.

Like everyone else said 1-3 FUN .......4-6 PLOW thru them.

I guess it depends on your stomach and how hard you want to beat the boat. I have run mine in decent water on poker runs and I am always amazed how well it takes the water. Much better then I would think.

I been seeing them for sale in the 15000- 25000 range.. Is that about right for 86-90?

Hell No .....

i would guess that a boat for that kind of money would need more than just cosmetic work. It might need some bildge work engine and driveline work!!

I actually think that in this market that is about right. Buddy picked up one that was nice on the trailer for 18K and it was a 89.

25k buys a pretty nice 311 right now, I know it makes 311 owners sickits not right but it is what it is, and arond 25k, thats alotta boat!!!! I've toyed with it on occasion, but if I step up it will probally be a newer 292 or 312, just because there newer and faster, but there not half the boat overall as the 311 is
