WTB 388 Slingshot
 

Looking for a 388 slingshot for sale... What's out there? Have already looked in the classifieds, PBL, boat trader, Ect. Talked to a few but the search continues.

What are you looking for?
There is a bunch out there. What are you not seeing you would like?
There is one locally here owned by a engine builder, it has all new 675Hp naturally aspirated motors, ext boxes,drives are fresh. Turn key 90+ mph boat.
The owner bought another boat and the hustler is ready to go

Yes I seen and talked to Aaron twice on that one. Just didn't want to limit myself to one when others may be out there. There are a few things that bothered me but I'm not trying to turn this into a bash fest of any sorts. Merely like to explore option. Efi would be nice but not required. 95+mph would be great but if I found something with 500Efi's whipples would be an option for me. Clean is needed for sure.

I replied to your PM. Give me a call.

phil hess has a surface drive 388

There is another 388 in our group that maybe for sale if the price is right. EXTREMELY clean boat with newer (Ateco I think) 598's, Imco drives, Myco trailer, new (from Hustler) interior. Pm if you want and I can put you in contact with the owner.

Sick - Yes the Hessler lol ... Hard for me to do ASD's. We swim around boat ect... Don't need kids, adults, or myself for that matter getting cut up... Boxes would be about it.

There was one @ Performance Boat centers fun run Saturday that is not listed here

I swear im going to rename my boat that lol

How much you asking for your 388 Phil?

Interesting... Maybe I will look into that. Any idea on year/power?

Crazy looking prop guards .

Busy summer!! Back on the search now. I've circled around to other boats (tire kicking more or less) but keep coming back to the hustlers. Anything else pop up?

not much info in ad. I do like the paint,

I seen it. Like the boat but seems pricey for 500's

Very clean boat with TAOD paint job

Finally sold my Elim... so now boatless. Still love the 388's.
Any new ones hit the market? Or anyone thinking of selling?

There is not a lot for sale lately. It would take a big check to get mine.

What is it you have Tom?

2000 388. 500 efi s.

I see. What pros and cons do you see with the hustlers? Some say due to how light they are you can "feel" the water different. I didn't notice and some people say that's a myth. Any insight on this? They seem rigged and wired very well. I like the spacious cockpit/cabin also. Thoughts?

No non of that. It's heavy. Now my Velocity's where light.

I think I read in my original test sheet for my boat the chip filled out it weighed 9200

mine can still be bought ;)
