Thought they were all 37s

never heard of a 47. looks a little rough to me. my favorite is where the guy asked for more pics and the dude responded see attached.... the 2 pics listed in the ad?? whats with the 4 throttles on the right in the cockpit pic?

The early 47s were called Stilettos as well. That boat is called Four of a Kind. The boat had four 1100 Keith Eickert motors coupled to two big Arneson outdrives.

so your saying it would be cheap to re-rig??:lolhit:

Former ol employee told me some clown sank that boat backing up too quickly? Rumor I heard from someone that was working at the factory during and after it was built

The boat had surface drives I believe, he put it in reverse they pulled the rear of the boat underwater. The owner at the time if I recall correctly told the insurance company it had 4 600hp engines, when they found out what was in the boat they weren't happy, I remember there was some big issue with it.

Pretty much what I was told. Thanks

What OL is in the background of that picture.

Nice looking GTX! Never seen that one.

Gary it is a 51 GTX with twin 1075's. It was originally a LCM stock boat.

Is it at the factory?

Nope, it is owned by a guy in upstate NY. We had it at the shop for about a day over the summer for just a quick fix. It's a great boat! One of the few 51 GTX with only two motors.

4 of a kind was WAY ahead of its time back in the day and shot a rooster tail like I've never seen before

Looks like the ad is gone?

anybody have any of those photos of 4 of a kind saved?

any pics?
