Deal on 42!
 

Here's a nice deal on a 42 Outerlimits with 1075's! Wish my boats were sold!

http://yachtauctions.com/listing.php?vessel=4096

thats a good deal.. for a newer late model with 1075's. Personally, Id get the motors finished, verify hours, sell them, and then throw some Merc 700's or custom engine builders 750-800 hp motors in there.. 97-100 mph extremely durable package.

I must be looseing it! unknow engine cond.. that silver int, has got to be toast.. no trailer... ugly paint... I dont think thats a deal at all...

just my 02 ct..

Agreed 100%...are those the right props?

Uh, not for that power. They look to be about 6" too small in diameter. (to start with)

But,.....

I kinda LIKE both the paint scheme and interior.

This is an 06' OL Legacy w/ Merc 1075s & Dry Sump 6's for $250K. Simple math on the hardware alone makes this a super deal, not to mention the epoxy layup and top notch rigging from OL. Trailer & props @ $20K make this is a $270K - 120+mph boat. Obviously a survey is in order, but from the pics and info the boat is sick and will make the new owner very happy. just my $.02

How much for the missing tail pipes?

I dont mind the paint or the interior, but, 250K for a "Project" seems kinda steep, they list it as "new" but, its a 2006?

Was this a boat that was repowered?, I cant see those
1075's needing to be pulled [or rebuilt] with that little use?

Or was it a bare hull? that someone started to rig and decided to sell?

Gorgeous boat!.......................IF it was finished

Michael

what make you think the engines dont need a refresh? add that and a new int your WAY over what its worth... thats if the tail pipes are their and the drives dont need a rebuild too. big risk in my view.

175 is a deal no more...

Looks like it was all together at one time:

and they may take that or less. i know someone that a boat from them for half of what they were asking.

You see so many repo's without motors and or drives (because they what people with stuff that's gonna get repo'd sometimes do) these engines might have just been out of the boat for another reason.....that's my 0.2

It would be nice to find someone who knew the history of the boat, or owned it? if the motors are shot and the drives need to be rebuilt then its not a "deal", however, from what I have seen 200K DOESNT get you very far when looking at an "Outerlimits", so, I guess more information would be needed to evaluate it.

I personally, have never even been OUT in an Outerlimits, much less owned one, but, would probably give my first born to do so, just curious? are they really that much better riding/handling than other boats?

Appreciate then input!

Good Question. I've been in a 37, but wonder how hard and loud the epoxy makes the ride compared to the vinylester layup?

In a nutshell yes!!:D:D The glass boats can run through rough water like no tomorrow. The Epoxy boats still ride very well they just have a little different feel but they are quite a bit faster!! They are a stiff boat due to the layup but run and attack water great! The new SV and SL bottoms are amazing and run incredible. You have to experience the ride for yourself.

There is absolutely no comparison between the ride of a 37 and a 42.

I have vid of a ride in a 39 it was a experience all right...

For all of you guys that think this is a bad deal just do the math. I am not suggesting that you pay their asking price but even if you did you could make this an azz kicking boat for less than half the cost of a new one.

Asking price $250k, paint $50k, cockpit upholstery $10k, Merc Motor Freshen $45k, props $10k, trailer $12k and rigging $15k. That adds up to $392k at asking price. This boat ordered new today with this engine and drive package is over $800k If you get them to drop their asking price things just get better.

This boat was originally owned by Al Damon and then it was traded in on a new 46. The 46 was in the classifieds for sale with the same paint scheme. I actually looked at this boat about a year ago. It looks much better in person than these photos. It is ashame that it is sitting in that auction yard in that condition.

Oh TRUST ME, given the opportunity I would be MORE than willing to go out in one, It would be really interesting to see just how different ["better"?] the ride is compared to a "regular" performance boat.

I agree the boat is well worth the sum of its parts, as for the boat being 800K new, well, No offense intended, but, how many people pay "full price" for a boat, or anything else for that matter?

I think the fact that we are in one CRAP AWFUL economy has to be considered as well, just my thoughts anyway, THANKS! for the replies and input guys, its appreciated!

Michael

Thank You! Other than the tails & 1075 plackerts missing on top of the motors this boat looks perfect, and for $250K I am surprised the need to pick this boat apart. I own a 39 Quattro, and have ridden in them all (fountain, hustler, cigarette, donzi, etc...), the OL from performance and fit and finish stands out. The 39 needs a little negative tab or it will walk a little (Merc 600sci/Bravos/Hering 6 Blades = 105mph), the 42 runs on rails but the price goes way up from a 39. BUT, as eveyone knows (or maybe not) you pay for the OL exclusivity, and OL is not a mass produced boat as it is built to order. This 42 is not a 38/39/42 from other mfg's with stock 525 power and bravos. This is a Merc 1075 boat with 6's, just because it is up for auction does not mean this OL is junk. Not trynig to offend, just being realistic even in a horrible market.

Well, apparantly not everyone feels that way, or it wouldn't still be for sale? Gorgeous boat, no arguement here, but, I am just not sure if its a great deal or not, just my thoughts

Michael

go to the factory with 500k you will walk out with a new 42...

correct..? List and what you pay is way different. in some cases i have seen half on untra high dollar boats..

I would not want to have 400k in a used 2006 ol...

I do think the boat will sell in the 170 180k range..

just my 02ct....

I think your right on it with that .

Things are really awful in this economy. However you will not walk into Outerlimits and walk out with a new 42 1075 #6 boat on a trailer with a kick azz paint job for $500k. If so go get it done. On top of that if this boat can be bought for $170k it will make someone a hell of a boat even if you have to put some $$$ into it to get it where it needs to be. What happened to the higher resale for Mercury power. If you can buy it for that money again go get it done.

This is the perfect time for some of you on the sidelines or considering an upgrade to get into the Ultra High Performance Boat market at a significant reduction in pricing. But if you are worried about the price think long and hard about it because the operational cost of any Ultra High Performance boat is significant.

Remember this is a hobby that you have to love. If you are doing it to make a profit look around at all the dealers that have filed bankruptcy.

I am heading to OL Monday AM (with a customer) to drive both of the mentioned boats. I will report back if anyone is interested.

Stop buy NJ on your way out there and check out my friends 46', it's in the price range.

This boat has very little use on it, I am trying to figure out why the motors were pulled. If strongly interested in the boat, make sure you have them power it up and look at the hours that it has on it and make a decision from there.

I heard they were hanging from the chain when the the boat was repoed ALL most got away with them... 89hs at one point.. but who knows if they are the original engines..

Heard a rumor someone may have bought it, showed up and the bildge was empty? Sounds like some funny business....

Anyway, the engines are definitely in the 46' I linked to above and the boat is ready to rock and roll! :)

I'm familiar with that boat in it's pre-repo condition.

How did your trip turn out.

The trip was amazing!! Fountainicbm met us at our hotel just as we arrived and was a great tour guide. Dan showed us around Bristol and Providence as well as answered tons of our Outerlimits questions.

Monday we went to the factory and met Fred, Mike and Pop. They took us around everywhere and we saw all kinds of boats in different stages of production.

After the tour we crawled through the 08 42 Legacy and the 08 41 SL. Both are amazing. Then we hit the water!!

Drove the 42 first ran into 3-4 seas and heavy wind, very impressive boat!! Loaded the boat up and then ran the 41, both were simply amazing!!!!!!! I cannot post pics here anymore but will email and will be loading on midwestboatparty.com as well as facebook.

Thank you to the Outerlimits team!!!!!!!!!

Difference in rides? 41 is about 38-39 running surface right?? Was the 41 about 10 MPH faster?

Glad I could help you guys out with some Outerlimits information and get the full Outerlimits experience. Had a great time hanging with you guys as well! If I ever get out to LOTO I'll def call you guys up!

Can you give me the difference in ride of the new stepped bottom of the 41 vs the older 42.. I like both boats.. which rode better in the same seas..which felt more secure, and which boat had a softer landing.. Ive been on a few 42's..never a 41. Thanks Jeff

Yes the 41 is give or take 8-10mph faster. The 42 didnt have the correct props on it. Once again there is absolutly no boat out there that can run or handle with the SL series from Outerlimits!!

The 42 is a great boat and rides great. Its an all around larger boat in size room wise. The 41 bottom is amazing and Brett got to experience that! There is no vee bottom that runs the way this 41 does. The new 44 is in a league of its own as well. Everyone saying its only a 37,38,39ft boat is just blowing smoke. The 41 has just as much running surface as the 42 because of how flat the attitude of the boat is. You have to ride in one so you can fully appreciate how amazing this boat is and what it's capable of!
