i would like to know if richard hewitt is giving away 26 sonics? someone wrote me and said he got a price on a new 26 with a 500efi,its,xr drive custom grafics loaded with trailer for 86,000 did i miss something, i paid more than that for a 02 with all the above options.

I doubt Richard is giving away anything. Every deal stands alone but that is a very good price for a well set-up 26.

I just purchased an '04 on the weekend (comparably equipped). I can tell you I wish I got that deal. It is very LOW! Who was the individual? Did they buy it direct? Might be considering there would be no dealer markup. That boat you described runs right around 100,000 (through a dealer).

i found out the that it wasnt thed 500 its and xr drive just a 496. some people like to fabercate stories.

Now that makes more sense. I was around that same price for a 496 mag HO. As you know the 500EFI, ITS, XR drive etc adds anywhere from 25-30k additional.

Hey ash72201, saw your pics on the Lake George thread, nice boat!

thank you go4broke i had a great time boat ran great even on flat fresh water. great day good people and loud boats makes for a great weekend.

steve congrads on the new boat youll love the sonic and that 500 enjoy and do your self a favor maintain the motor and it wont let you down. good luck and have fun, im looking at a new 358 with twin 500 and my graffics.
