Default 32 with 496MHO's and Arnesons

I've seen this boat pop up in the classifieds and just wondering if anyone knows the scoop on it..

Still a bit pricey considering the motor size but what a reliable combination that would be!

Anyone know anything about it? Speed? Insurance?

425HO's and ASD7, HMMM???? that drive is good for quite a bit more HP so plenty of room for upgrading. Wonder if this rig had different power at some point??? did you sell your 24???

Not yet.. It's for sale though.. I'm usually not a fan of the 32 because of the back deck and the lines look dated. But this one is put together right. That's one of the benefits of this setup is the ability to realistically change power later down the road with minimal upgrades.

I'd prolly keep the hatch closed till I did something else or dressed up those 496's a little lol. they look a little out of place in there to me

Rolf at Pro Roc rigged the boat originally. It ran 106-107 when it was new.

Oh yea, with a 525 Whipple Kit or even the new Hardin Marine TT Kit it would go......

That would be the benefit to me. NOT having to open the hatches to do anything. Those 496s' , left alone should be bullet proof. Those Arnesons are the chit! Some 525s' would be the cats' meow. I'm tired of motors going KABOOM!

the 496's in my sunsation have been bullet proof. one bad coil pack and that's it. the engines are definitely dependable and those drives should last forever behind them I would think.
