Anyone know this boat? I am looking for something like this, don't necessarily need the supercharger, it would be my first boat, didn't want to spend over 20k. What is a reasonable price for it?

while i dont know that boat the zt240 is a great first boat. if possible if you can spend a little more upfront it would be cheaper in the long run . try and stay with a fresh water boat . its a buyers market good luck with your search. http://pbsyachtbrokers.com/pbs_inven...searchtype=buy

I don't know anything about the boat it looks like a lot of fun. I have seen it on craigs list for about two years now so they might be willing to talk. Rember anything thats been modded that much needs an owner who can take care if it or who can afford to take care of it. 80 is pretty fast for a first boat. on the other hand you won't be itching for your second boat quite as soon.

I saw that one on Craigslist too, wasn't sure about the 300 hour mark, what can I realistically expect to get out of the engine before having work done?

depends on how it was ran. Ive heard of guys having close to a thousand hours on the original engines.

I know the guy personally, it is in amazing shape. You can P.M me if you have any questions.

another thing if you have a SC it means burns more gas and more maintance. And blowing an engine is a lot easier.
