Hey Biggus - it's CFM from the other boards. Your PM Box is full.

I have one with a broken lower. I could be very interested depending on the $$$ and I'm in NH - On Lake Winni...so kinda close by you guys.

Give me a PM with price .

Thanks,


I'll ask my buddy when I see him (he's on a snowmobile vaca) He knows what they are worth, I'd imagine he's want 2k or so (ea.)

I will have to check out BF's. Been looking for a forum with people that own xlts...

Thanks for the tip

That with a stock alpha will probably run 72-73 maybe add a ss drive and ballpark 75-76 possibly. I run " problem child", 185 w/ 600+ HP SBC n/a. W/ that and a ss drive I ran 87-88. I reglassed transom and raised another 2" but never did get a GPS speed. Broke the ss so now I am on to blueprinting the bottom, switching to a bravo setup w/ hopefully a -2 or -3 lower. Gonna freshen engine and of course give a lil more HP lol.

Any xlt questions just ask. Have ran this hull since 2002 and know most of the quirks and setups that work

Someone on this board PM'd ne about the SS I own with a busted lower gear...well, I may want to sell it but I cleaned out all PM's including yours by mistake. Please re PM me.
It appears another SS has found me.

Thanks.

Sorry gave up on the search for a while and am back at it again now that the interior has been redone

I have one with very low hours on it. It is in excellent condition and still has the original shine to it. I can give you more details about it, but first I must tell you that I want what I paid for it($2500) and that I live up in Canada so not sure on how to get it to you. Let me know if you are interested. Thanks

I will relay the message to my husband. Could you email me info [email protected]

Just to keep you guys inspired to keep looking for an Alpha SS.

1st time out with the one I finally just installed. 6mph gain so far. Didn't stay in it as I'll typically do for speed runs....Boat is out of prop - will have to try more.

Wow! I picked up an SS last year to replace my stock Alpha that's on my Donzi Minx. That Minx runs 60mph on GPS max. Are you telling me that simply bolting this on may show me 68 to 70mph?
That Minx will be a handful at 70! How friggin fun is that hot rod gonna be!:boat:
