Popeyes on e-bay...........
 
Being an old school, vee bottom guy, I absolutely love this thing.

IMO, way up the food chain for, no limits, lets throw as much power at a vee as we can, build a hull as far off the hook as possible, try everything we can think of and then try and tame the beast.
Can't even imagine trying to drive this thing.
Love the aft shot of the barrow beam w/the 3 drives on it.
Yikes.

Enjoy.

Cool boat and a piece of history. But ya better love chicken and biscuits for 125k. :rolleyes:

That boat is all aluminum, correct? No fiberglass work there, you better be a sheet metal fabricator. Wonder what the weight is in comparing it to a newer boat made of composite materials. If it's heavy, I guess; that's why it takes 3 beast, to move it.
Nothing like riding in a boat; that makes you pee blood, later.
