are they the same? I was looking at some svl's and they are much thinner. It's a question. Canopies have evolved at the expense of racers live's. While many look like they are many pieces. They are in fact one with bracing. Ours is now floated and has no holes. It also has less exposed surface area.

That was my concern with the water stains, Info that I got is that it was raced in Porta Rica, it has high compression dry sump engines and requires race gas, the name is bleached into the sides where the decals were removed.
The engines have been started but little information on its history, I searched the internet but found nothing

Where did you find this information? Especially on the motors! I was told they DO require race gas.

I told you ,they are 750 supercat motors . Yes compression 14-1 / 110 octane fuel .

Motors new 45 K each . Market value 6 K each now.

Water stains in a raceboat ,nothing to worry about .Has been raced ,,,,,,probably,,,,,,does that matter ,,,,,,NO.

But all in all , i think its a good deal for what it is.

Plesureboat no,,,not even a good poker run boat .

But a hell of a P3 boat ,for sure.

If they are 750's it would be a 120+ boat.....

$5k for lexan, ouch.. Has anyone tried sanding/polishing them out. Even taking them to a pro would be cheaper than $5k Id imagine..

it depends on if it is true polycarbonite laminate or an inexpensive alternative. if it a real laminated lexan, i can easily be sanded and buffed. about 6 hours of working it should bring it back out. if not it will have a scratch resistant coating, and if sanded it will be ruined. been there done that

If they are supercat motors, the intake is quite a bit different and so is the alternator and lube reservoirs. Of course, since they are dry sump, they may have been relocated. Im flying down November 1st.. We'll see what happens.

The only thing i see diffrent is the alternator, that could be a room issiu !

Other then that ,they look complettly like a supercat motor.

( SUPERCAT MOTORS are drysump)

And I thought it had APBA or something written on the supercat intakes?
