I was just searching the net and stumbled across this.

I am definitely curious as to how well the hull handles those kinds of speeds.

I sure would think those drives would be a ticking bomb with that power

Why would someone spend 166k on power and throw it all away 4.5 hrs later?

I was wondering the same thing. It sure sounds like something must not be right with the boat.

That's Mooresville (a.k.a. NASCAR Mecca & Lake Norman) I bet it was previously owned by someone in the Biz and they either bit off more than they could chew in $ or they decided that they wanted something else bigger/smaller...'

It could be just a situation of it being someone else's headache though...

Quite interesting all the same.

The asking price is the same as what it cost for the engines and drives.

The previous owner of my 382 had 950 H.P. motors and claimed 114 mph. He went through 4 sets of outdrives in less than 75 hours. I've had to replace one XR drive already and re-mount a lot of hardware on this boat due to previous use!

Lonestar382,

How is your 382 running? Did you finally get the set-up and props dialed in with the extension boxes?

I would hate to see the guy goose the throttles with the Bimini top up
and those B max's are they rated for that much power ?

I haven't done much but use the boat. I tried a set of 26's, but I don't want to move the ext. boxes until this fall. I am going to put some more energy into dialing it in then.

Wasn't the fastest 382 in the world just in Powerboat Mag a couple months back? He claimed 109mph. The ad claims 118mph. I think whoever buys this needs to set up a race to see who is the supreme 382 on the planet. I know a guy with a 353 that could follow them and pick up the drive / motor pieces
