Had it out once ,seems to be solid and has a great power plant, owner had it for 10+ years and was well cared for
now has a fresh 509 fuel injected w/vortex v4, aluminum heads, custom cam, cmi headers and max marine worx bravo w/1.36 gears, new interior and a myco aluminum trailer.
Wife likes it from the other boats we've had.
Nice to be part of the velocity family

will be enjoying the velocity threads, now that we have a drivers boat, handles great.

Would attach pic ,if we knew how,sorry

You need to bring that bad boy to the 2015 Buffalo NY Poker Run. We need a bigger Velocity turn out.

The Buffalo run is great. Here is a link for all the posts and pics of the 2014 run. http://www.offshoreonly.com/forums/p...t-8th-9th.html

Looks like about a 300 mile from Toledo, almost all on I 90. If you are considering going try to sign up as early as possible. Last year it filled up and some people who wanted to attend were not able to.
here is a link to this years Poker Run thread. http://www.offshoreonly.com/forums/p...-new-york.html

Hope to see you there!

Default 2000 Velocity 280

These boats are great!! I get complements all the time.
single 502 Mag Gen6, lighting headers with a Whipple Super Charger running a Bravo I 26 pitch prop.. 80mph all day... only running 4/5 lbs of boost.

i am in Michigan, I need the following done if any suggestions...
- upholstery redone, engine hatch and bolster chairs.
- New hatches on the bow,
- manual latching mechanism for the bolster seats ( bottom drops down and locks the bottom in so you can stand), can not find replacement any where, even sent email to velocity with pictures...

Thanks!!!
