didn't see the possible sale post. But I believe the aforementioned 30 is still for sale.

It will do just fine, honestly, the boat will take it....after a certain point it just isnt fun anymore. A guy like Ryan Beckley can run a 30 Skater with outboards through about anything...but 6-8s isnt "fun" in anything. Not for pleasure boating. Its a great boat, perfect for Fla. Outboards rule down there

If you are looking for a great Florida boat seriously look at the spectre 32. They run really well, alot of pleasure comforts and the winsheild is a huge plus if you are boating down here in the winter.

I know the skaters and all that are fun and great but for worry free fun boating in FL I feel the Renegade is your best option.

It will be a turn key every that just needs to ad friends and beer.

Is there a website where most of these are advertised?

I owned a 32 Spectre w/ Twin Ilmors, it was a great all around boat but pales in comparison to the 30 Skater I replaced it with. Not a big fan of the Starboard Helm & LH throttling of the Spectre. IMO the Spectre is like a Nissan 350z & the Skater much more the Ferrari when it comes to offshore performance cats. It begins w/ the hull construction & layups!

Sadly none that I know of that ypu probably have not already seen/found.

Not sure if you have but send Bob the Builder a message about them. He owns one which I am sure you know but he also has contacts with others who do as well. Maybe one of those is for sale or he can lend a hand in finding one or at least answering any questions you might have about them.

As much as I love my Sonic I have made up my mind that a sport CC is next. At least as long as I live here, it's just a great fitting boat for FL and fun.

the 308 is a great boat. It will handle big water and a blast to drive in it. It is actually 31 x 9'6" and has a wider tunnel then the 32b. If you put the 308 and the 32b side by side you can't tell which is which

Tell me about the CC john, hours,trailer motors. looking for something to use here and FLA.
