Is that 30 for sale?

No
 

No, it's belongs to Sterling Mikes GF. Can have you a new one built in about 90 days.

Last i heard,it was for sale.

Jim, what ever happened to this boat? I kick myself for not being able to buy this off of you! I looked it over good when you had it up to the St. Clair races, love that boat.

Here are Jim's and my 30, from this past weekend. Photo by Jay N. aka(jayboat)

Ever hear a number they would be looking for? Really like this boat..

Just got off the phone with Mike at Sterling and he said the boat is not listed anywhere for sale and it's not for sale but if someone wants to pay a large premium.......everything is for sale. You can have a new one built in about 3 months for what it would cost to buy that one.

Thanks for th quick response Blume!

Installation and setup fix
 

I have a Skater 32 classic with the exact same cracks on my 300X lower units. What was the installation and setup problems you found and fixed? Thanks any info would be great.

The boat is not for sale
Thanks
Steve

New 30'
 

mrb30, can have you a new one ready in about 90 days.

Looks like they make 3 different decks for the 30 ?
I.O with big windshield
OB with fairing
I.O with 1/4 can

Is this true ?

or a full canopy race boat like ours.........

Very nice boat !!

Pete can put the canopies, windshield, full cockpit or nothing on the flat decks. The molded deck for the outboard is flip up's only.

the 30 i had with outboards is in long island nice guy owns it loves it uses it a lot

Beautiful....WOW

whats so beutifull and i know i spelled it wrong

This......................
 

Thanks.....................PR388

Blume that 30 has great colors...love the size of the 30... dont see alot w/ Bravo's..... Hows it run/handle w/ 700s ?

Great looking 30..Love the paint..
Great pics JK:drink:

I don't think I've seen a 30 around these parts. Any pics?
Love your current 30! I'm surprised more folks don't run the LS engines... especially blown LS's!

You lost me at Bravo's! :lolhit:

Sharp boat though! :ernaehrung004:

Anesons would be sweet on that boat, or you can run NXT's, Indy's or Bravo's. #6's are to heavy ... The Sterling/Bravo boat runs very good though.

I have X power so far so good no broken prop shafts and props sitting on the bottom of the lake or blown up upper gear cases exspensive but being able to beat on the the drive and not worry pricelees . bravoes on a cat is like having snow tires on a funny car no fun just my 3 cents worth inflation you know

To my knowlege only one Skater NXT boat out there & it was a bear to get the handling sorted out on. I inquired about all options for the inboard 30 waiting for the ILMOR Indy drive to be released for the Gen III engines. I believe they are on a 368 w/ 525's beautiful boat.

Sterling Mike's GF's boat is probably my all arounf favorite 30. I wish I had the wrap around windshield, deck & tunnel extension. Paint & interior are very clean & sharp looking.

very niiiiice colors Blume but you lost me on the Bravos :picard1:

Nascat
 

I have tons of pics & a few videos of my boat if you want to see something in particular.

Below is a link to my buddies site Performance Images. Dave was nice enough to take a day off during the week to snap some pics & video during some prop testing I was doing late last year. Some of his pics even made the PB Mag story. Video #2 is the best (2nd from left top row)

I see Stainless has his Ilmor #6 32' for sale in the classifieds, thats a beautiful boat!

Aren't the NXT's just about as heavy as the 6's?

No they are much smaller & lighter, close in weight to the ILMOR INDY & probably the X-Power!


http://mercuryracing.com/drives/

Mercury Racing has just written a new chapter in the book of revolutionary marine propulsion with the development of the all new dry-sump NXT¹® drive. The drive is robust enough to handle engines between 525 and 700 horsepower with an input torque rating of 800 ft-lbs. The engine/transom plate/drive package is nearly 200 pounds lighter than a comparable engine outfitted with a standard size transmission and dry-sump Six drive. Both the drive and transmission feature dry-sump lubrication for higher efficiency and reduced operating temperatures.

Interesting, thanks!

That 30s a great looking boat!! unreal!!

Great pics everyone!!:drink:
