Any of the older flat deck 46’s kicking around for sale?? Could also be project boats or ex-race boats.

Gorgeous paint scheme. Hope you post a restoration thread.

As for Ruthless You guys are correct it ended up in Sint Maarten and I was lucky enough to purchase it over the winter.
It will be restored to former glory as I love that paint job. Also going to convert to EFI Whipples should be a bad ride.

You're not just saying that because it looks like your Gladiator?
JK yes it's a beautiful boat.

Yes I agree the paint and history of the boat are important to me. It has been de-rigged and power is being refreshed and updated. The Hull is going under the knife soon to fix lots of issues, tanks, deck, paint, wrap around, bussel, and new paint. Definitely keeping the name and going to use this paint scheme as inspiration for the update. Once the refit gets going there will be pictures added. I feel it's in the right hand for the job can't wait to see it done.

Also
If anyone has a big tilt trailer they want to sell LMK no rush but would like one.

Key West 1994. Kjell Rokke's 46 skater ran the Lamborghini's in Superboat whilst Bjorn Gjelsten/Steve Curtis crewed the other Mercruiser powered 46 skater in Open Class.

Kjell Inge usually ran a 6 incl. Spirit of Norway and Reverie in this thread.

Bjørn usually ran a 10.

On this occasion, however, we have a 6 and a double 6. Hence the question.

I think in that race he ran the "66" with the Lambo power.

About 24 min in, you can see them moving the Brooks 66 around the docks and Curtis is with the "6" Mercury Racing powered boat
