Default Staggered #6 boats

What's out there with this criteria...fountain is out...just cant get over the left hand controls...I have a feeling that a new boat is gonna be on my horizon at some point and would like to get a feel of whats out there in a staggered 6 configuration...speed isn't a huge priority but rough water capability is along with being under 40 ft....are there any that fit the bill for this?? Doesn't have to be staggered I guess but would prefer it and would prefer it to be under 100k...does this boat exist??

thanks

Under 100k for any SSM6 boat is few and far between and for sure they will be wet sump 6's.

I kinda figured that but wanted to see if it was possible...being I’m a noob to 6’s is it bad if they are wet sumps?? I know not the newest technology but they have to be better than a bravo based drive right??

Going to be very difficult to find that setup. Most will have xr’s. Better off trying to find an Arneson boat in that price range.

Not staggered but this is under 40 feet w/ number six drives. Sharp looking boat. Looks like a fun Poker Run boat. Make an offer under a 100K and see where it goes.

Nothing wrong with a non-staggered boat either, staggered fly better, and stay hooked up a little better in rougher water, but you wouldnt be racing it. Staggered are also easier to work on.

Under 40 feet and staggered, no fountains and number six drives for under 100K. That isn't going to be easy, in pleasure boats I think OL did some staggered 37's.

Not sure who else did any pleasure boats under 40?

No, not if you want something in decent shape.

Something that needs work, yes. Ruckus (38 Top Gun) is for sale for 85k with Pfaff 1000's and 6's but it's super rough. There was a super nice looking all white apache in LOTO for just over 100, but its a 41.
