Yes, if it is the one I am thinking of, it is a very nice boat, I know the original owner took exceptional care of the int/ext. No shoes worn on it, and wiped down as soon as he docked.

When I bought it from Rob and it was VERY clean and it is still VERY clean. The only thing I have improved on from when he owned it was I cleaned up the carpet in cabin. It was a little dirty.

Hopefully apppedigree will chime in to answer you question. I bought the boat from him. He hit 95 with it. I have only taken the boat out maybe 4 or 5 times and had no problems getting to 80 with plenty more to go on the throttle.

I am just guessing (for fun) but I would say 8psi, dyno around 800 ponies, at about 6000 rpm, with a 28 or 29 hydro prop, that should be around 95+ mph.
Let me know how much I am on or off

9lbs of boost trimmed way out and a handful. Turning 6200rpms with a 32bravo and a 1.5.0 drive.
I went threw 2 drives like that then put a different gear in and put on a 30 pitch prop - longevity and cruising. It probably needs a 28 now for all around performance but it will roll.
The guy I bought it from in VA was obsessed with this boat. He sent it back to fountain 3 times to have work done to the hull. It was the first stepped 27 that they made.
The motor is detuned because I did not want to replace motors anymore. It is running 26* timing I think and boost is back down to 4lbs pulley.
It will roll and it is definetly a head turner. I personally cannot believe the price hes asking, it will get picked up for sure.

Still not bad for a guessAnd yes he was obsessed, if you put her on the scales, I bet she is the lightest 27 out there, opps did I'm not suppose to know that :-)
