I know of 2 more Kevlar Phantom's that were built, I own one of them and Bob Mazikowski has the other. Pretty paint Job on that one. Seems like a good price too.

Is this boat still SVL legal with the "fountain" steps added by RF?

:picard1:

Yes its legal with 2 steps or even 3 in OPA. There are rules in the OPA rule book that address the number of steps vs weight. The Activator and Lavey Craft both have twin steps. The class has opened up the rule on maintaining a factory stock bottom. You can now modify your bottom. Get a sealed Merc. 525 and bring it on someone. That boat was killer fast when George had it.

Being that I was the one that picked it up at Reggie's and delivered it to Florida, I can first hand verify that it has a one step Phantom bottom. Yes the boat's bottom has been modified but no more than any other active Phantom running today. If you read the classified add, it says "Blueprinted by Reggie Fountain himself" Last time I checked, blueprinting and adding step(s) are two different ball games. After the blueprint and balancing of her, she was able to reach a higher speed with the same motor and computer that George ran with in the OSS days.

No expense was spared when at Real Fast or at the shop here in Fla and the price is less than half of what was invested in the boat over the past year. It is a steal at this price and it will be a front runner in the OPA SVL class out of the box.

My bad on the Kevlar..... thought I was told it was the only one. Thanks!

SOOO,

What are you waiting for??:party-smiley-004:

Are you gonna be in Cocoa? Thinking about blowing off river ranch this year, and coming to party with y'all:evilb:

Not when you compare a new Phantom boat for $125K plus. Its also the asking price and if he is motivated you never know. IMO these boats are all under valued. If you added up just the parts alone. The good news is in the OPA SVL class the old boats are just as competitive as a new Phantom. When you look at it that way its a steel !!!!!!!
