Looking for a new Boat-Suggestions/Help
 

Hey everyone somewhat new to the site looking for some help. I currently just sold my 222 Stinger with a big block. Wasnt a bad boat at all just not big enough for an ocean go'er. I live in mass right on the water and looking to head to block and the vineyard. What should i get for a next boat. What should I look for. ANy1 have a boat for sale that would suit my needs.
I have 20K to spend I would like to do around 75 with the boat single engine with a cabin, just to sleep options not needed but ok. Ive been looking at a couple,

90 LS 242 Formula- BB 496 MAG MPI 17,000
90 Switer 25 SS - BB 454 MPI 12,500
25 Larson Senza Spectra- Step Hull- 454 (need work) 5000
1989 Scarab Excell (oso swap shop listing) 454 21,000

This is just a few that i have seen but always up for options and info is gladly welcome. Im never against learing thanks every1 love the site

Safe, 75mph transport to the Vineyard on a single for $20k?
Formula 242 is good. See the SS as well as the LS
Look at a Baja Outlaw or maybe even a Wellcraft Center Console.

Hey thanks dave nice looking piece just a little old for me but thanks for the look out

Re: Looking for a new Boat-Suggestions/Help
 

Formula is a good choice! but making it go 75 will cost you 20k over the price of the boat...............

Re: Looking for a new Boat-Suggestions/Help
 

OK sun thanks for the info im gonna keep lookin out

Re: Looking for a new Boat-Suggestions/Help
 

75mph---single w/cabin 20k ??? good luck,, let us know when you find it all the boats listed will cost more than an extra 20k to get those speeds.

Re: Looking for a new Boat-Suggestions/Help
 

cosmic doesnt have to go 75 but capable of i will do the motor work just looking for a good base

Re: Looking for a new Boat-Suggestions/Help
 

OH! OK! Then the Formula would be my pick. Very well built boat 24 degree bottom nice cabin. Most of them were very well cared for as they were very expencive to start with, Find one with bolsters and a big block. There are a lot of 242s out there with bucket seats and small blocks. good luck keep us posted.

looking to upsize 28,29,30 still with a single

I see I spoiled you. :D

That shouldn't have been very tough to do if he came out of his 26 Vol into Remedy. :D

And all for under.... $???

Cos Remedy is all you could ever want and more i must say..... And BTW i do like my velocity if i kept it 100+ easy with the new power And storm not sure how much im looking to spend but i want to get what io pay for of course, and no steve i do want remedy but no way in hell unless i sell my 1st born kid i can get that . But an A/T Pantera, Somethign along those lines
