I have been watching this boat for a while. From what I have heard, the seller is a reputable shop (I have never personally dealt with them). I noticed the flame arrestors say MRD on them. I am curious if they built the engines. I was not looking for a new boat until next season, but this could be a very good deal. I know Sutphens run incredible. I wonder if the boat has been raced. The trailer says F2-50 on it.

Odd, why not give it a chance at a price?
5 days and a price drop already?

90mph+ with 650's? I don't know...

Default 35 Sutphen, originlly GREY GHOST

The boat was at the dealers for quite a while after that. When my friend sold the 35 it had less then 15 hours on it. If anyone has any questions, call Ernie at 401-261-6225.

Ken, it looks like the x dimension might be a little low, so 90mph might be a little generous, also no one has any idea what those engines really are!

The engines and drives came out of his Scarab, currently known as " NAIL IT ". He never had the boat long enough to dial the combination in, but ran in the upper 80's the way it was.
