i have to install the new motors and remove the
tall deck blocks 680 h.p. from the boat.

fill the exsisting exaust holes and put them back to the
original spot about 3-4 inches lower and a smaller dia.

with the 440hp motors he told me the boat tops out at 65 - 70mph

i also believe the hull is a 26 degree deep vee

it eats rough water for breakfast

he has two sets of motors, i bought it with the smaller H.P. ones
so i have to reinstall the 440 H.P. blocks. the 680 H.P. blocks will be for sale soon and i will find find out the details...

I believe the 440's are the originals ,completely rebuilt and slightly upgraded with 0 hours.... He wanted and extra 20 k for the boat with both sets of motors.... i was more interested in the reliability than the big power and also the extra $$$ had somthing to do with it.......

Yes the k planes are brandnew.... among many other things.

heres a cockpit pic

Would love to share pics and stories
