Nobody wants it. It has been for sale for a year and 2 people have come to look at it. Everyone wants a 496 boat so that they can run 70 at WOT instead of half throttle. It makes absolutely no sense to me.

I have personally put 165 hours on this setup in the past 3 seasons, I have changed 1 starter, 1 sea pump and had 1 alternator rebuilt. It doesn't get any more dependable than that.

Well you and I have talked and you know I want it baaadddd just can't financially make it work right this second unfortunately...if my build would have progressed better this summer and it was sold trust me I would have been there to get it already...just don't want to waste a bunch of your time and gas on coming to look and go for a ride when I know I can't swing it right now..if I could like I said I would be there....as for the 496's..personally I have no use for them...sure good turn key motor till something goes wrong like F-2 said but face facts, in these kind of boats everyone is looking for a little more speed and with a 496 you're screwed unless you spend BIG money....I would love the turn key reliability that comes with your motors and hey they're 700 horse as well....seems like a no brainer to anyone looking to run 90+ comfortably and reliably
Anyone want to trade boat rides for driving duty in a bank robbery so I can buy this beauty?? hahahaha

I have had dozens and dozens of people that have called about this boat, mostly from out West, but no one will drop $400 for a plane ticket to come look at it, they just want to talk about it. It didn't bother me a bit to fly to Havasu to look at it and buy it. I have dropped the price so much that it makes more sense to just part it out.

Bump for a great boat and great seller. I bought a 509 from joe and a several other parts and couldn’t ask for a better guy and ambassador for the boating community. I’d hate to see this boat parted out, just to nice a setup.. ever thought about doing the raffle thing? Been seeing it a lot lately and has been looking to be a success. I mean I’d kick couple hundred if there’s a chance to own this boat. Even if it was a 1 in 400 chance.
