Advantage 30 w/ twin blown 377s??
 
anyone know this boat??
Keeps dropping in price although it doesn't include trailer?

I don't really know much about Advantage boats and hesitant on rebuilt blown motors???

Advantage?? Rough water boat??

I don't know this boat, but i have had a 27 Victory and now a 28 Victory. I am pretty sure that my next boat will be an Advantage as well. I am not saying that they are the finest or fastest boats in the world, but you get ALOT of boat for the money. They are very well built and all of the graphics are in the gel. LOTO is full of Advantage boats and that place is rough for a lake. You would have a hard time finding one that even has a stress crack or a spider web in the gelcoat. They are built to take it. And to top it off, the guys at the Advantage factory are great to deal with if you need anything.

I remember the boat when it was brought down to the Miami show back then. Nice boat! Ran great for the couple times in was on it. Nice room and ride for the conditions. We did not really venture out as far as I wanted but it was a Boat show boat so had to keep close for rides :)
Do not remember it having blowers on it though ?
the 30 is not the fastest Advantage out there, but still a great lake boat. the 32' is a HUGE improvement overall and would be my choice. However if budget is mind, this would fit the ticket.
Lighter weight of the small blocks, theory of less gas but you are using less power to push more weight--just like a v6 in truck comparison :)

The price does not seem too far out or range, but then again I have not been pricing boats to compare

I have a lot of hours at the wheel of the 32 but not the 30. It was a very fun boat to drive and great cockpit for passengers. It handled waves well and I believe the 32 was even the national champion in the early 2000's. as mentioned, at LOTO it gets very rough and it was a blast and few stock boats were faster. My friend added blowers to his stock 502's and it was over 100 mph.
