Well I went ahead and bought it. I decided to take the chance and buy it without getting a survey....... I had the dealership winterize and shrink wrap it for me. Should be one its way to Michigan soon. I will see soon if my gamble pays off.................................

Still waiting for the boat to be delivered...... Actually still waiting for it to be picked up by transport company...

Not that I'd be able to use here in the Detroit River

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.

Looks like a great deal. A little soap and water she will clean right up.

that lower is a sportmaster by merc not a imco, there is 3 mph in it if you have the skag cut to the same size as a stock bravo skag

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.

I would definatly be intersted in selling!! As long as I can sell it for enuff $$ to buy a fresh stock lower. The sportmaster on this boat is fresh I was told it was just put on the boat for the sale as the OE lower was all pitted. If he is interested in it have him shoot me an offer!
