lmao! The sunpad and drives are what kills me. The sunpad looks like a rainbow.

The drives were orange at one time , they were imcos, he liked orange

Thanks for the responses. Didn't get the boat. Decided that I didn't have the time to drive 12 hours one way and didn't want to buy it site unseen.

If it was a real sale and the engines and drives were good as the seller advertised and told me, the buyer got a hell of a buy at $25,100.

I think you made a good decision tom.

What is the difference?

540 cu inches instead of 502...

Correct me if im wrong but isnt the Mercury racing hp500 is a 540 and it's copyrighted as the "bulldog"
