Thanks Baja Bigdog. I have always loved the 382, but it does not seat enough people. We houseboat on Lake Powell about 4 weeks each summer and invite 20-24 friends and family on the trips. I am looking at a 350 CBR or something similar.

That makes sense.....the Fastech models are tight for more than 4 or 5 people. I have always had a love of Formula boats and can see the draw to the more "practical" models......I can see where you could seat a ton of people on a 350 CBR.

But the 350 CBR only goes 50 MPH!

That is the only problem.....can't have it both ways...right?

Did you ever see this video of what I believe is you and your 382.....you should include the link in your ad.....

Yes that is me. The Silver Shadow 382 with Ilmors you see after the video you sent is over (lower left corner) is my son in law on our old 382. I will definitely miss the Ilmors too!

Oh wow.....so you have two 382's with Ilmor 725's in the family. Sounds like you will be able to enjoy your old 382 even after you sell your new one. The Ilmors look to be a really nice package from what I have seen....just staring at (or drooling on) the engines would be enjoyable for me. :D

No just have the Stiletto now, sold the Silver Shadow and it is in Michigan.

wow, that 382 Stiletto is a gorgeous boat!!

Ok....I misunderstood, that will make it even tougher to see her go.

I know what you mean.....I could just set up a chair and admire that beauty without even putting it in the water....

Have you looked at the 400 FX? This model is more of a cross between a Fastech and a cruiser.....check out that helm with the Livorsi monster gauges and Livorsi controls, not to mention the red carbon fiber dash panels..... You could fit lots of people and have a party down below !!
