1990 33-35 Lighting
 
In 1990 was the Lighting 33 OR 35 ?
What kinda speed did they run with 502's and bravo's ?
We are going to look at one later today was just wanting to get a heads up before we go.
Thanks in Advance

I THINK they started calling it the 35 in '92. From what I remember from an old Hot Boat test speed was low to mid 70's with carb 502s.

89 was the first year for the 35. 88 was a 33. In 1990 with carb 502s I would say 70-73 mph. real world.

The hull id # will be FGQ330 for a 33 foot and FGQ350 for a 35 mid 91 was the change in hull id the intigrated platform started late 89 model year, the boat if it has a intigrated platform is a 35 foot
but the HID # may indicate a 33 designation. that boat with 502s??
should be a 70-74 mph boat

I had a 93 35 Lightning did 75 GPS with 502's carbed and 20 gallons fuel.

Yes it is John Holmes Boat. It is nice needs little work nothing to major. Do you anything about the boat ? My uncle is buying it after good sea trail and survey.

jmeng 02-22-2007 12:30 PM

Is Barry buying it? Thought he was an outboard only guy? :D

Don't know a ton about the boat. Last time I saw it, it looked like it was in decent shape to me, maybe a little rough around the edges. Our camp is right past his, never noticed him having trouble with it. He mentioned a while back that he might sell it. I considered it but didn't want anything that old.

NICE OLD GIRL!!! Where is she at??:drink:

Yes Barry is buying it just seems like he only likes outboards
the last two boats he owned was outboards he said he needs a change he sold the excaliber last week.
Yea boat is nice just needs a little cleans and minor work.

John has a 07 or 08 35 Lighting with Stag 525's on order should be done in a few weeks.

Cosmic no its not that clean how much you want for it ?

It is a 1990. on the reg it says 33 but it is a 35 really. One owner and has been back home to fountian for many updates. The guy that owns it will sell but wants alot for it. The boat will run 85 and better all day. I think that I can honestly say that there isn't a cleaner better kept 33 anywhere.

cosmic12 02-22-2007 02:34 PM

what is it worth? Like I said it is better than perfect. Make a offer. The boat is in N.Y. fresh water all it life and the summers around here are only about 4 months.
