Default Spotlight 40 Outlaw in classifieds.

Ya'll see this?

http://www.offshoreonly.com/classifi...o34095-en.html

I wonder if they would disclose it being dropped to a prospective buyer?

I think it is WAY overpriced too.

My guess is mid 90's. That boat will need over 1000 hp per motor to break 100 mph.

The boat ran 82 or something ridiculously low. It wasn't hurt so bad it couldn't be repaired, but still it was dropped off a Wiggins form at least 8' up.
The x-dimension is way too low & the stagger isn't close enough, in my & others opinions.

If that a carbon/composite hull, what does it weigh?

You should be able to break 90 pretty easily if it is less than 11000lbs. The X is just way low... isnt it.

Rhetorical statement but: How can you rig a boat with 850's and funk it up that bad? Why even put that power in there if you are going to put the drives in the basement...

If it were cheap enough the new #8 drive would take 2" off the drive height. Otherwise it would need to have the a$$ filled & redone to get the x right. The other problem is there isn't another 40 with 6's on it that Baja built so it's pretty much a guess on where to put it.
I love the boat, don't care for the 6 bolsters though.
There is a thread in this section that is not too old reguarding Spotlight.
