Default 42 Lightning

Does anyone have any info on the 2000 Lightning with no power in Lake Havasu? It's advertised with no power with staggered setup. Thanks for any info Joe https://www.offshoreonly.com/classif...50-o71119.html

So how much do you think it would take to put drives and engine in it say you were the type of person that would have to drop off to Eddie young and pick it up when ready.

Then how much would it be worth? Asking because a friend said no way to much money.

One could go buy the crimson tide boat with 700hp 575s, bmax drives with imco short lowers and tons of trick billet and powedercoated upgraded parts and dash etc for probably 70k. It was a staggered 42 lightning that needed a paint job. You can get big power #6 boats in the low 100s. But the time you buy this for 40k spend 20k on brand new XRs for the worst option. Then depending on power fresh from eddie another 60k easy probably and then it's still ugly and still a bravo boat. This deal is pretty much only good for someone with an old straight bottom donor boat of some sort with good power and drivea

He is not opposed to big power 6 boats. What ones are available in the low 100’s that don’t need a ton of work?

We are on the hunt and have seen some junk out there.
