Thought this was a little ugly, but still a neat boat! Never really see any boats in the 80's with any steps.

Yes it is

That's absolutely beautiful.
Can you see the kin-ship to the new day cruiser Nor-Techs?

Yes,

That Boat (or one exactly like it) has been on Ebay off & on since last fall... not sure that it ever sold, but as I recall high bid was in the $20K neighborhood

That thing is a fricken abortion and a half, sorry.

"rare in the US"...this is one of those times where "rare" means it didnt sell b/c it looks like hammered $h!t.

why dont you tell us how you realy feel, TooL Vtec

I'll work on it, sorry

:coolcowboy:

"a little ugly" is funny, like calling a girl "a little fat".....:D

While it is a interesting boat, being 28 years old it looks like it could get expensive quick (old powertrain) and it can't be fast despite the huge steps.

The one on ebay is around Madison wi area its around 20g to buy

looks more like a yacht tender or ski boat.

Funny, I met with the guy who own'd the company that built these boats. They were built in Italy an in total they made right about 400 of these. They are very popular in the South of France, everyone claims how stable and smooth they are. Everyone there also mentioned that this is the boat that NorTec copied to make their Monte Carlo boat. ?

Love those boats. I've seen a gross fixed upper on the west coast get bid up to 4gs. And a couple running ones in the 20s. Price is strong. They seem to go for more in Europe. I love the efficient step hull and reliable V drives.

Is that one listed somewhere?

It would be like the thick chick you call at 2am for the booty call when you leave the bar... Great in the sack but not good enough to date!!

I don't that this will move at this price anywhere around here! Especially Waco, TX...

Dude! that's awesome!!! You have one of those and all the gals gonna jump your bones because it's so chic! Great stabbin' cabin. 55 knots// what is that, 65 mph-ish? One of kind for sure!

What's not to love about this boat? Oh yeah,$55k. If it was about $20k I'd be all over it like a Rockefeller on Beluga Cavier!
