Re: i'm new to hustler
I have a 99 Slingshot.
No issues with the hull quality at all.
It is holding up nicely.
Feel free to give me a call if you want to ask questions.
I think they starting making the Slingshot about 97. Not positive but that should be close.

I have a 99 also. There's no structural problems with my boat. It doesn't have the head room of a sonic but overall its a good size cabin for the size of the boat. By the way mines for sale in the classifieds. It's the one with the custom graphics.

Re: i'm new to hustler
It looks like Dean is correct. I found a hard copy of some info off the Hustler web site in 2000. It says that they introduced the Slingshot at the Miami boat show in February, 1997. In 1999, it was Powerboats Powerboat of the Year. My 1998 Slingshot has 350 hours on it and is holding up just fine.

Re: i'm new to hustler
it was updated. it was originally an hp(carb)500 boat. it was stripped prior to being listed as a repo in 2001 w/out power, drives, etc. in really rough shape. Now its done and relisted. Kind of high IMO.
