Re: New 30 Testing In Florida
 

Thats Ocean Outboards New Boat Has Some Nice Color In The Interior They Will Be Rigging It Soon I Saw It Out At The Toy Factory Just Before It Left

Re: New 30 Testing In Florida
 

dang that new 30 is one fine mo-fo (some old motown lingo) as im originally from Ann Arbor Mich, i sure wish i could justify that cost, they quoted me $130,000 for a blank, i dont know if they just wanted to get rid of me as i didnt need their rigging..so im buying this 28 and im putting the 300XS'S on it .
i need to sell my ocean express before i can order the motors (the mama put her foot down) but have to drive from florida to PA to get it. if anyone knows someone looking for a nice 33 ft ocean express with new drives and 540's merlins let me know.

Does anyone know the weight of the tested boat

Re: New 30 Testing In Florida
 

According to Powerboat magazine, Jan 2007, page 80, the 30 Skater that was tested, was listed with a hull weight of 3,000 lbs.

Re: New 30 Testing In Florida
 

You Can Figure On Around 4300lbs Average On The 30

Re: New 30 Testing In Florida
 

Jim,

Thats about what we figured for the total
3000 hull
1000+ T/300xs
350 addl rigging
-------
4350 or so, dry

I am waiting for a confirmation from Skater, but am presently planing on being at Skater Tue Jan 16.

I Don't Know What A 30 Weighs But A New Painted 28 Weighed 2300 Lb. With Only Hull And Interior And Cockpit Cover Installed.

No, I am in between performance boats right now. My latest boat, 30 Skater is just about done. going to MI in Jan for final rigging.
