Thinking about buying 96 382sr1 what's it worth
 

I have a friend selling his 96 382 sr1 and aluminum trailer it has twin 500s carbureted decent boat one motor won't start because ignition problem mechanic said part is 800 also needs prop on one side its vibrating he said he hit a rock with it I have a 26 ft baja now not sure I want a boat that big. Also what kind of top speed am I looking at thanks

I'll take a stab at it........

65-68 mph and worth about $35-45K as it sits.

this 40 is for sale and in good shape for about 20g's

Well I went and looked at it needs a little interior work the graphics are ugly and teal and painted on and starting to flake off and it's a steel road runner trailer not aluminum so now what are ya thinking

with unknown engine/drive issues (regardless of who diagnosed them you have to treat them as unknown) i wouldn't go much more then 15 or 20K. at the most.

and i agree 65-68mph . . .


Which 500's? Merc blue motors?

Based on your revised description I'd agree with glassdave at $15-20K

an 800 dollar ignition part? wtf

who made those 500s will make a pretty big difference on its value

Ok got more info he said it's the distributer 400 and the mechanic said the other is gonna need to be replaced before long the prop has a little bit on one of the tips that is bent a little the owners a good friend of mine so it's not a random seller

pics?

The motors are stock 500hp 502s

I don't know how to post pics

Are they blue or black? makes a big difference here, if they are original blue motors they are from Merc Racing (generally). You need to be paid member to post pics straight to the forum otherwise you have to host them or email them to someone that can post them. If you want you can send them to davesikorski(at)sbcglobal(dot)net and i can post them for you.

or ask Kidapache..... he can post without a paid membership LMFAO...... He would probably want about 60K for something like that

Blue mercury racing

Can't be that good of a friend if he is willing to sell you his boat.... J/K

Do you have another pictures of this?

I would say with the blue motors, needing some work it still would be a good buy for around 25-30k. I have that same boat with 540cui 625hp motors runs around 75 on gps, the good bad and the ugly. its heavy mine is around 13k on the trailer u need a good rig to pull it, the ride is decent best speed comes in around 2 foot waves its good up to about 5 then it starts to beat you up a little. its is a great weekend boat mine has a/c and a full camper top love spending weekeds at put in bay on it.

just looked at the ticket form the scale at the truck stop 13889 lbs "I have an alum I beam trailer" thats with gear and fuel.

I think I'm gonna stay with my 26 baja I have a house at the lake so I don't need much cuddly area and the cockpit isn't much bigger than my 26 and that's where we will be

Is / Will the boat be for sale still? Any idea where he stands $$$?

402's are just classic offshore goodness

This could be it. http://www.boattrader.com/listing/19...82-SR-1-361971

32k

So is it the same boat? 32K seem like a good deal. Is that the friend's price to you?

500HP's? How many hours?

if this is the boat hes willing to sell for 32k thats a very fair price. you will not be disapointed.

No it's not that boat

That boat for 32 would be a steal wouldn't it I see these boat advertised for 50 k but what will they actually sell for not what we think there worth lol

uh?
meaning?
