I had a Sweet 16 just like it, but with a teal stripe. Mine had the 4.3L Merc. Would do about 55, but squirrely as all get out. Fun boat for sure. I used it mainly for water skiing. It just couldn't handle the lower Chesapeake Bay though so I quickly sold it and moved up.

Enjoy!

Donzi:
Boat is behind house. Go outside, jump in, start motor and go. Get on plane immediatly. Drive around intercoastal. Go home, tie up boat. Jump in the pool.

Awesome new toy Gino,sounds like a whole different way of boating then some of us our used to .
ROCK ON

Sweet Ride a guy down the base has 1 and loves it CONGRATS! If you are not going to be using the Benz boat send it up my way. We could use it for a good chase boat

Wow, a Gino story that actually has a happy ending.
Nothing scratched, broken, blown-up, liquified, flipped over, flying objects, trips to the emergency room, and the girlfriend isn't even complaining.

Is this a sign of the Apocalypse?

We have a lot of fun with our Concept 23. Hassel free boating plus it can go a lot of places the Black Thunder can't get into.

Yeah Joe, it would probably be pretty difficult taking the Thunder to McDonalds
