Cockpit--kind of a crappy pic it was getting dark.

Perfectmix,
Very nice looking boat!! Finish looks to be in very good condition, nice color scheme too. Has the vinyl been replaced? Formula usually used more colors than what your's shows. But, I really like the simplicity of yours. Looks to be white and off-white or light grey.

Had the boat long? Nice trailer too!:cool:

Perfectmix,
If your boat is as nice as it looks in those pics,,,, 40k minimum!!!! That one is way too nice to let go cheaply.

Wow, is that the '86 357 with Kammas??? Very, very nice looking. I agree 100%. If that boat is in as good condition as it looks to be in the pics then $40k minimum. I really like the white/grey interior. I thought I liked the interior colors actually I think it looks better plain like that.

What does it have for engines? And, what kind of mph are you getting out of it?

Thanks bford & thirdbird
I bought the boat 4 years ago with and the engines and vinyl had been recently replaced. I loved the boat so much I had to build a big a@# garage to put the thing. Now I'm faced with a dilema. I want to go faster and I have to decide to either install big power or buy a newer bird thats already set up. Right now I get upper 60's with a set of 475+/- hp 454's. They run very nice but you know how it goes. Always have to go faster.
Boat was surveyed last year and looked good.
decisions,decisions.

Beautiful boat. Worth in the 40's as it sits. Take off that Bimini and make it worth 50! :D

(Sorry, just continuing my war against bimini tops):)

Sorry Cuda, just got back from a trip that day. The bimini normally resides in my garage. By the way awesome pics on the Kaama boot replacement. That job is no fun but thanks for the posts.

Ok, just try not to let it happen again! :)

My wife would love to have that bimini top. ;-) But, I can find better uses for that money.

Perfectmix - How does your 357 handle big water? Do you get much hull flex? I'm surprised you're not getting more speed out of it. Mine will run 76-77. The engines are 454s with B&M 174 blowers at approx. 540 hp each and of course TRS drives. With a few mods and your Kammas I'd think high 70s would be attainable fairly easy.
