The pictures make it look well kept, but if I am correct about past readings I'd say every bit of the drivetrain would need looked at to be "reliable" because they are probably planning on it lasting til you get out of their sight.

correct. Complete douche. Everything in that lot is a lost cause.....
I'd be very cautious even at half that price point. |
National is VERY hard to get a deal done. However, not every boat is a repo or has a story. Some of the sales are just people that don't want to deal with the normal grind of selling. I wouldn't say it's priced as a steal so that might be the case here. And what repo comes with props IN PROP BOXES. :-)

This is definetly not the boat from grand, as Tyson stated that boat is now the Speedracer boat on LOTO.
I believe this is the old Turbine boat that Dave had built at the same time. Couple things give it away, first Dave was the only person to run the Trimax drives, also It looks like you can see the old air intake pathways in front of the motors where there should be a solid bulk head. This boat also a couple other unique things to. Looks like someone took the turbines out and repowered, and glassed in where the turbine air intakes were as well as the rear air foil/spoiler use to be. IMO One thing to consider is this boat probably had bladders in in when it was built. Which don't last long and probably would need replaced with cells. |

I admit I was stumped for a bit but I think your right. And the description says its fiberglass and the turbine boat was fiberglass and not carbon. Cockpit looks like that boat also.
I really don't know much from those pics, but I would guess that it's the old Turbine boat. Sure looks like it in the pics anyway. |
