Default IMP Viper 31'?

1990 IMP Viper

I have done some searching on here with limited success.

How good are these boats?

And what would be a good price for it?

Thanks!

Does it have a dragon or something on the side of it. If so it was parted out a while back.

There is no arch, but it is teal and white. And I have only seen the one side, not sure about a dragon, where was the dragon located exactly?

What are the details on this boat, if it is the same?

Thanks!

So .6 MPG then? Wow and I thought my V10 Excursion ate gas.

How big of a fuel tank do these boats have by chance?

The guy says he has done nothing but work on it since December. That should be a clue. They are not known for being high quality boats.

It probably has 120-150 gallon fuel tank. It should get about 1.2-1.5mpg at cruise speed. That is total, not per engine.

What do you think is cruise speed?

What about at no wake speed, mpg?

Did you talk to him?

Anymore details then what is in the ad?

I have texted a little with him myself.
