I am 99% sure you are correct. I keep my boat at that same marina that Bob used to, I believe it got picked up last year and sent to the repo yard. Really was a very nice older 357, used to be called 'BAD ASS', for good reason

This gotta be the boat, even remember the stellings exhaust. I believe it got sold for under or around 20k, bc i remember seeing it and not jumping on it, and it was sold. The powertrain was worth 20k all day. Anyhow, I believe bob's boat ran in the 80's speed wise.
