Default Wanted: Project/Race boat

Hi everyone-

I am interested in finding a race boat/ project boat. My only reqiurements are:
33-38ft
Under $80K with power or under $50K without
Newer than 1989
No TRS drives
No cabin
No fountain's or Baja's (nothing agains them I just don't like them)

So if you know of any boat that meet my guidelines let me know.

Thanks,
Don

I know of a 38 Activator for sale... Probably right in your price range and no power.

Sorry here are a few more requirements.
No canopies, I like the look of the old F2 boats.
Also no big horsepower engines. Way too much work for me. I would like something with around 500hp each.

Sorry but I am picky.

I have thought about this boat. Love the look but the engines are a little much for me.

The engines could be sold for plenty to have them replaced with 500HPs and still have money left over. But, don't do that....for some reason I'd had to see that boat move backwards like that.

Have you searched on boattrader.com? Lots of options there for you...here are a few.

34' Sutphen with 525's

34' Sonic with crate 572's

33' newer Scarab with 502's

38' Scarab with 502's
