Carl had it repowered with bigger hp before he sold it.

I think thats a great boat.
Classic lines, and cool old school.
The only thing that will break the bank are the mechanicals.
I would make sure you get to see all receipts and talk to the engine guy.
Start in low $41s.

If you think 51 is steep for 20yr old boat, you should look at an apache. :D

I had a 12 meter with 700 Zuls. One of the best riding boats I have owned. I had a race fairing made for it and colorkeyed the rubrail and side vents. It updated the boat tremendously!

Anyone know what the deadrise is on the old "beaker"? Is that from the old excaliber hull mold? Boat looks to be in pretty nice shape.
