Looking at a 26 Rum Runner this weekend...
 

Gonna check out the 26 RR someone posted on the CL here...
Curious if there is anything I should be looking for or at??

What kinda speeds would this boat run with twin 200 O/Bs?
I already know from reading everything here it'll be a great rough water boat...
Also, what do you think this boat is worth if everything checks out??

Heres some details...

Did you purchase it? If so, congratulations.....

Did you end up purchasing it? If so, congratulkations....

No, not yet... Contemplating making an offer but not sure what its worth, considering options and age of those motors, etc.

Loved mine. Regret selling it.

Any info ya can give me...

It had a pretty decent hull with a few scratches here and there, nothing major... Interior, upholstry and everything looked good.
Engines were rebuilt in 2000, but not 100% sure what was done, didnt have time to pick apart the receipts... But at this long its been so long theyre plenty used in my opinion?

I would think you would be looking at 70-73 or so with stock 200's and a three bladed wheels. Depends on where the have the X set at. 4 blades were always slower but they did provide a little better control up stairs. With 2.5 OS I ran 86-87. That was with Mazco wheels. I think they are no longer around? 26 is a great boat!
