boy, you really look at things in an interesting way. Tom jr is a good sales person and would do anything to help his customers. by the way... here is a 390 with over three hundred hours with plain 502's and doesn't have the 45 thousand dollar paint job the boat at ducky's has. is this guy ignorant too ?

Both boats have been for sale at or around that price for a long time . The market today has a lot to look at in those price ranges . Many of the boats that sell are at major price reductions . The 390 with big motors and Bravo drives is a bad combination in my view . Ask Velocity Tom or Velocity Vector what selling their boats was like . You can list them for any number you want . On those if you want to sell them , knock off 40% and they will go away .

I've seen it to many times , big motors breaking drives . It might work on a lake ? After you have to come a long way home on one motor and get to buy a few drives ? it kinda takes the fun out of boating real fast . That Velocity claims to have over 800hp , your stacking the deck against yourself from the start . You will have to baby it and hold your breath anytime you go out . Boats like that will have a hard time being reliable . It would be neat for a little while , till it breaks !!!!

Hey Ray I hear you are looking for a Skater possibly,I know where a 40 is in Florida that you can probably get cheep if it is still there.Let me know if you are interested and I will see if it is still there,I would like to buy it but I am concentrating on buisness more than anything at this time,let me know.

Getting ready to put in offers on 2 different 41 Velocity's first . One has 900's and 3a's and the other is an x-race w/600's and 6's . If they turn me down , I have a couple older 40 Skater's I am looking at . Would rather a 36' but that is still a little out of reach . I told my wife a Skater might just be what I need to cure my sickness . When I can afford it Steve will be building me a new Velocity that caters to my insanity. Gives me a goal to keep working toward .

Hey KC , you and I both know a boat is an expense , not an investment . Hope that post about your sale was alright , seemed like a good example how tough the market is . I am just into having the most fun I can with the time I have , I am not getting any younger . Sorry I missed you on my way back this year . My uncle got sick and had to cut my trip short . When I roll through next year I'll be hoping for a ride in that new cat . This is the first season for me without a boat in a long time . I will be on the water again next year , just not sure in what yet . And I don't want to know what I spend on boating , Heck if I did I'd probably quit !!!!!!!!!!
