American Offshore NSX
Looking for some input/opinions of an American Offshore 26' NSX cat I am interested in. Anyone know how these things hold up construction wise? How they handle? Resale value? Anyother coments would greatly be appreciated as well.

Re: American Offshore NSX
everyone i've talked with has always been very happy with there 2600's and NXS, most have held their value extremely well also. If you'd like I can quote you a price on a new boat...never know it may trip your trigger.

I have a 96 that I bought last year. Love the boat. Had computer problems but ripped the fuel injection off and went carbed on the 540 Chevy. Having fun with the boat now.

I would be interested in seeing a quote on a new AO NXS. Let's say with a 525 EFI and Gaffrig gauges. When are you going to bring your current demo boat out to Clinton Lake?

Re: American Offshore NSX
I know of one that was at LOTO that ran 120+ (122 i think)it is on the American Offshore site. Red with balck tear-off paint. It had a blown 588 by Splinter racing. There was also a 2600 there that went to Grand Lake, in OK that in a previous life had a Louis Boyd 1100 in it. It was a 115+ boat. It now has a blown Boyd 468 in it and was last owned by a guy named Dave Weatherson. Very stable and fast boat but I think 115 is where they hit the speed vs. dollar wall.

Jasson I have ridden in a few 2600's. Well I used to hang around at the shop at Grove when ED had the plant there.
The quality of the boats were top notch when Ed ran the show. If I was you I would buy a new one or a 94-97. Chromecat can point you in the right direction.
