It arrived yesterday, just in time for a new snow fall. After it's trip across the US it was a bit dirty. It's shrink wrapped for the winter so I will have to wait till spring to see the cockpit and cabin......
I talked to someone @ Velocity a few weeks back becasue I was a bit curious about the solid white paint. As I was looking at other Velocities, I had never seen one without some sort of graphics. From what I was told it is pretty rare to have an all white hull, as it was a special order per customers request.
The all white hull looks really nice in person, pics really don't do it justice.
When this boat was originally posted in this thread it had the OE Bravo upper and lower and looked to be pretty pitted. Since then it has had the upper rebuilt and an IMCO lower. I was told the the upper now has XR gears..... The upper unit case does have some pitting, but for the price I cannot complain.

Yeah, it has been bought to my attention in another thread that the lower is a sportmaster. It looks to be a -2. I will see how it runs before I screw with it. I don't run my boats at full throttle often, I usually have my wife and daughter with me. So an extra 3 MPH, may not be worth it to me. I'm just happy to have a boat that can cruise efficiently at 50 mph, instead of topping out @ 50 (as my baja 250)

Nice boat! Love the all White.
Great deal! You stole her.
Good Luck! The family will love her.
You may consider selling that sports master lower and go with a stock unit. Don't modify it unless you're keeping it. I have not read that anyone has gained with a short lower on these boats.
If you do deside to sell the lower, I have a bud with a 29' Fountain looking for one.
