Very tough market for a 50 marauder.
The one with trip 1075‘s is going to be nearly impossible to sell.

The boat should only have twins and with trips only running 115 is a dog. Old engine technology. Cost to maintain three 1075’s Is more than the cost to buy the boat. Cockpit position is the old design that is moved too far forward. Also the paint is not appealing to the majority.

This boat will be bought by someone that really does not know what they are buying or what the cost of ownership is going to be.
Or buy the boat for parts.

I can’t even say it will sell for 200K

Selling Triple boats is nearly impossible these days. A 40' Fiore that was in perfect shape couldn't be given away for 60K and the power had 40 hours on it. I know that it actually finally did sell for 44,000. Pretty much the value of the engines.....maybe. lol

Awesome boat. Stay safe and enjoy.
Get that driving course under your belt before doing this......



P.S. I hope I've got the right boat!

Right boat indeed

That boats really fast. Like one of the fastest Vbottoms period.

I am an avid V-Bottom performance boater, former racer and have run high performance boats for over 30 years. (raced for 5 years and run speedboats from 20-50+ in length.)
I currently own a 38' Donzi ZRC (since 2007) which runs 110+ mph.
I have had extended wheel time behind multiple Outerlimits, Cigarettes, Donzis and other V bottoms.
Both Cigarette and Outerlimits are at the top of the food chain quality wise (Ferrari & Lamborghini) but differ majorly in the way they run.
The Outerlimits HP for HP will be faster than pretty much any V bottom out there. That said, there are some draw backs. The multiple steps, light weight layups, and carbon / epoxy materials make them run and ride significantly different than more traditional stepped hull boats. The multiple steps get you extra speed but create a unique driving experience at higher speeds (sort of a loose car on gravel feel). The light weight and rigid materials create a very stiff ride so you do feel the bumps and ripples more than in a heavier fiberglass resin boat.
The Cigarette will be slower but will ride much smoother and when the water gets real rough, that is where it will really shine.
It really comes down to what you plan to do with the boat, where you boat and what you prefer ride quality to speed. Again there is nothing wrong with the ride in an Outerlimits, its just like comparing a track only car to a fast street car.
The only thing I would really stay away from would be any triple engine boats (maintenance and resale nightmare).
There are pluses and minuses to older power (1075 Blower motors) vs. newer power (1100/1350 turbo motors)

Hope that helps a little and good luck!

So I'm curious with all the talk about the trip boats just how hard it would be to strip one down and rebuild it as a twin? I would assume you could get quite a bit out of the engine and 6 drive you take out to help with the cost of doing the project right.

I thought about that as well. Would require a ton of work but maybe a chance to make more on it that way? I’d probably pull the motor and the drives, sell them separately, and set it up for twins, replace transom etc, maybe put two drives back on but let a buyer add there own power. But it’d be a lot of work to get it to that point.

Wow that thing moves! I’m thinking that was 1550hp setting?

Likely not. She does 144+ MPH in 1350 mode according to my research. In this video it showed around 235kph which is right at 145. As said above, it's one of the fastest OL V-hulls going for its layout. OP bought a complete gem.
