Looks like a pop off a 41' Cougar v-bottom.

8000lbs my arse!!! One similar to it broke a 12,000lbs hitch of the back of a 2004 Chevy dually twice. Not the ball. The one attached to the underside of the truck. There is a reason why you never see any with outboards. The hullsides are over 3/4 of an inch thick not to mention the deck. They also had gun mounts on the deck and at the stern.

Next time you get down to Miami stop by and check it out. The boat does not have any armour, but it appears that it is a kevlar inner and outer skin, with foam in between.

The reason the boat is not as heavy as it would appear to be, is that is was parachuted out of the back of a C-130. The parachute attachment points are still there.

Here is a pic with it decked out with its 50 cals

Actually, that is the reason why it is so heavy. The bottom, hull sides, and deck had to be able to withstand the impact of the drop. The SEAL teams used these boats a lot for interdiction purposes. They had Innovation Marine(of Sarasota) power-plants. 850's and 650's, I believe, with No.3 Speedmasters. None that I have seen, have had the armor still attached. I have seen some with very large caliber bullet holes in them.

It will be able to take any sea that you throw at it. It is built like a tank!!!

Look it over carefully, for demil purposes, te navy likes to ram a forklift into the sides several times. They come up for auction from time to time on govt. liquidators. THere is also one in Fl. I think that keeps popping up on ebay and you can see the patches.
