TTT Can't believe a turbine with 8 hrs on it has not sold.

I have loved this boat ever since it was in an old Hot Boat magazine.....

What is the story on it? Size motors-how fast??? Are these things hard to start?

Something about the older MTI's that I really like.

I have been on that boat, it is insane. I have the old Hot Boat article on it also.

What's it going for?

beautiful boat, but cant see why someone would skimp out on accessory switches when building a boat in that price range

What about the $10 gauges

Tough to insure a turbine I'd imagine as well

has sat for a while but just was serviced. t53 turbine engine's
I had the boat going 155.3mph detuned 4' chop. Turbins are tricky to start but learn the sequence and your fine. Boat has approx 8 hrs in water, One of Randy's best made must be sold call David Woods today. Jo

T53s are like 1400-1500hp? Why did you detune it? Any advantage to that?

I like a race canopy on a boat that will run that fast. Those Buzzi Trimax drives are bulletproof and much lighter than Arnesons and BPMs.
