His boat is a 40 and it needs 'some work'. Wet 6's on boxes, custom 1200's that need some significant work, and the boat never ran right, probably because of those silly boxes. The comment above about the bussle is in regards to the 'custom' bussle he made for it out of 1/4" plywood. LMFAO!
It's always fun to see people talk and type about stuff they know nothing about......keep up the not so good work SS930 maybe you could type something about Jim being Santa Claus.

Your working on being a bonehead with just one screen name.

In my previous post I called it the old "Recovery" Skater... It was the "Restore" Skater. It had MAJOR damage from a race in Puerto Rico. I think Forrest Barber and JT were running it a the time. It was later sold and repaired (check it closely if you're interested in it!) and I think this was also the 'plug' boat for the 40 Motion. It's been sitting for a long time at this point, and I'm not sure I'd trust the boat with any significant power in it. If you're interested in more info, I'd suggest talking to Ryan Buckley, he'd probably know more about it.

Anthony, please point out which part I was incorrect about.

You know damn well this is all true. Okay, the 1/4" plywood bussle issue might be pushing it a little, as I know you worked real hard making it, but I think even you can admit there might have just been a little structual issue or two with it, HAHAHA! But hey, nothing another layer or two of fiberglass couldn't fix!

The power is fine. And the bussle was a little thin in some spots when it was done but that has been fixed but needs paint all around. Come by and jump up and down on the bussle at Skaterfest it's very sound.

And the boxes are gone and I have rerigged it just a little. I hate the boxes wasted alot of time with every spacer and turning in turning out just shouldn't have ever been on the boat.

Up your price a few bones each month and get into this.. If he won't take $110k for it, he shouldn't have listed it at that!

Spend the next few years upgrading everything and you'll have what you want!
