Pretty nice boat.
My personal favorite that is for sale is the Nortech 44 Roadster with 1075's at Pier 57. $299,000 for a 44 Roadster isn't a bad deal in comparison to other boats in it's class.
Nice colors. The only thing is the 36' has the cabin and the 44' only has the porta potti on 1 side. nothing on the other.
Good luck with your purchase.

Lot's of Pics of the Nortech 43 in Key West this week already on Facebook. Under FPC. I guess the owners are still using it.

Yes, that 44 Roadster is bad to the bone, but a little out of my price range. I also want the cabin for my young boys. It will give them more room to run around and/or rest.
If you dont mind, maybe you could post a link or pm me so I can see the pics of the 43 as well.
Thanks

I guess Im too dumb to find it on facebook. I found nothing under FPC and no pics of the boat under Florida Powerboat Club.

Look up "Laura Renee Schrader" she is the organizer or manager for FPC. She posts dozens of pics daily. I am sure she will add you as a friend if you tell her you are a big boater and future FPC member. I don't know if hers is private anyway. She adds the most Key West pics. Cat Astrophe is on there a few times. I will find the other sites for you as well.

Wow...you sure did a good job catastrophe. I just like the looks of the boat, but it sure looks huge, but nice. Yes, I think I'm leaning towards a 36, but that 43 boat sure does something for me.

I have a 36 and LOVE it......I am friends with the original owner of Catastrophe, the second owner and the current owner.....all keep there boats in prefect condition and respect the hardware. The 43 is awesome......I personally really like them for the simple fact they are so big but that is me..........although we are all different, I wouldn't have a problem or worry about hauling, docking etc.......I have had two 35 fountains, 42 fountain and now the 36 and I am a one man show for the most part, wifey helps as best she can
.........buy want YOU like, advice is great but at the end of the day you are the one going to be paying the bills and enjoying tthe boat..............just from reading the thread, it sounds like you want the 43 but leaning towards the 36 because of others.
good luck either way, both awesome boats.........I totally enjoy my nortech.

Why in the second pic does it look like the exhaust is coming from under the swim platform and the third pic the exhaust looks longer and coming from above?

The third pic is when the boat was new and had tailpipes......the second pick shows the "caps / covers" of where the exhaust used to come straight out as it has the under water exhaust system now.
