Default Picked up the 08 Ilmor 36

Picked it up Friday morning. Got some seat time today. Fun boat.Been looking for awhile. Looked at 2 others and this Boat was in great condition vs the others. It also had the better power package. Dealing with Mike Livorsi was a pleasure. Scott from pier 57 was helpful during the purchase as well. I had to repair a few minor things that they were probably not even aware of. (Trim leak and cracked prop hub) Mike has added a lot of personal touches to the boat.
Doing our fall harbor hop at Loto next weekend. Should be fun if the weather holds up.


2008 36 Poker run model
625 Ilmors
1.34 ratio drives
currently has 30p 5 blade Maximus props on it. (setup for acceleration not top speed)
114-116mph 5900-6000rpm

It has the Ilmor 625's.
running 30p 5 blade maximus props

still getting used to the boat all we have currently is glass smooth water here.
The boat accelerates unbelievable and could use a 32-33 5 blade. Ill play with props a lil bit come spring but it really performs so well the way its setup now and top speed is not top priority.

They use aluminum trailers vs using steel trailers powder coated to match to the boats. Id rather have a nice Extreme trailer, however it wouldnt get used that often as I keep the boat at the lake anyway.

value is market dependent. Ive seen your boat in person, while its in ok shape for the year. This one is 8 years newer and shows as a brand new boat.
Asking price may be double yours but thats not what I paid for it. There are deals to be had out there. Asking price is not always selling price.



regarding the smoke me comment, congrats, with my current setup if you didnt something would be wrong. although with the different props, Im not sure that will go as easily as you have planed.

boatcrazy 1052, just curious are you friends with QWKRN U? As if your not, you are quite the dick. Who cares what he spent on his new boat and how fast yours is or how fast your other boat is or your dads boat or your friends friends boat. You make yourself sound like a 13 year old who is the school yard bully who wants to meet everyone at the flag pole after class.
