wonder with all those "mods" if the structural integrity of the boat has been weakened in any way.....

It sure doesn't look like a 26. The paint job is pre 1995.
I don't think Sonic made a 26 before 1997/1998.

Looks like I paid way to much for my SONIC.
Man what a joker!

It looks like hooked on phonics worked for him.. I wonder if his buddy who has the corvette shop is as sharp as he is??

I like how it was stripped for weight, but then they added a 100 & 20 gallon fuel tank along with 2 20 gallon water tanks..

Best of all it looks like a 100 thousand dollar sonic boat !!!

But act now and please be serious because he will entertain trades, but NO junk because this kind of boat is very nice and it took over 70k to customize this $hitbox that will outrun twin bigblocks.. !!!

LOL I think I just pizzed my self from reading this!! Quick someone buy this so he can go and get an "edjumakation".. lol....

Someone should steal it and send it through the wood chipper

I just can't amagine anyone going through that much work on a Wellcraft! I hope the original owner can now afford a real Sonic, because he sure had a very very strong desire to own one.
