Default any O/B Rum Runners gonna be at CT river sunday??

Hey Guys.....I have been contemplating the purchase of a O/B Rum Runner that in a Rum NON Runner LOL......I have heard nothing but great things about them and i have a fresh pair of Merc 250 EFI 3.0 liters to power it with so it kinda makes sense but the boat needs alot of work and i am not sure i want to take on the project......

If anyone with an O/B Rum Runner is goona be at Ct River this sunday i would love a ride just to convince myself that i NEED one

thanks

Theres one in Niantic with one blown OB too. The owner also had a red 20 for sale a year or so ago.

Would take a little digging to find it though havent seen or heard anything about it in a while.

Highly unlikely that it sold though.

had twin 200s

not true! that's like saying the i/o ocean pacer is like my rumrunner...the op would crush my boat due to its mass, alone...if anything, the feel of your old boat (not the speed, of course) would be felt in my boat...that missing bulkhead, lighter bow and couple less inches is truly significant...don't get me wrong, good things do come in small packages, but size truly matters.....that's freakin' cliche, eh?...
c

btw, i know where brett's boat is...maybe some recon is in order to liberate it from its oppressor for sunday....
