Good feedback, thanks. :D

lol well I’ve been over 110 in a 42, stable and solid

The 38 AVS is a GREAT hull... no surprises and a very nice ride. I may be a little biased, but I'd certainly check one out if you've never been on one. That 700 boat is really cool... save a few bucks for fuel and still run 80 with this one (full disclosure, it's mine). :D

Haha - you're not ruining my cereal. I agree - you can go to cig, build a million dollar boat and not have a sink or toilet. It's uncanny (pun intended). It's all about how you use the boat. I used to be hard core about a useable cabin but have found having a place to sleep is all we really use it for in our store of boating.

I think my second V choice would be Nor-Tech. I like the looks and everyone seems to love them and the cabins look like the check your boxes.....

I'd love to have a Cig later on but for now, with a 7yr old daughter, an enclosed head, ac and room to sleep 3 is essential since we stay on it most weekends.

My cig has AC, TV, etc and sleeps 5-6 , no problem. Room for miles

There is a 40 Outlaw listed in the Baja for sale listing here on OSO

Which one...there's 4 listed.

I think this might be the good looking one...."Italian Ice"

Doesn't sound overly expensive (IMO) but would need bigger power to compare with any of the other boats mentioned on this thread.

RR

And the name on the side would need covered.

Seems like this would check all the boxes.

This is the one I was talking about.

That boat has great looking lines..........just needs the name removed

I owned that boat and sold it to Frank in 2009. I still keep in touch with him about the boat, he took it to a new level with updates. Truly clean freshwater boat. The paint is really cool from Mitchell T and looks wet as well as has depth to it. I’ve kicked my self for selling it as a few years later I ended up with another 43 Black Thunder. We love the room for the family and overnight stays. The ride is always good as well

Go get it Derek. We all know you are sticking with an AT.

Flying out east AGAIN to look at one next Sunday. Mike told me he was going to relist it but already set up to look at a different one that is mint and 100% freshwater. We'll see...

I think in the price range you posted originally, a 37 AT is the boat to buy and you would be hard pressed to beat it.

I know u said PQ was on the bottom of your list but my buddy has one a 2001 38 avenger
with 575s that is super mint runs a little over 100 u can probably get it for 70k

Vheim is shopping for a PQ of that era I believe..

yes he is.

..

Is it the all white one with a windscreen down in Florida? If so, I've already talked to the owner.

At the risk of derailing this thread I have to ask about the speed claim on the PQ.

Maybe its a typo..........thats a huge # for that power and a big heavy boat

I have to agree. It would need 700 a side atleast to run over 100.

Gonna need more than 700 a side to run 100. Ran 82 with 575s
