rumblefish, sadly in the last few years I have not taken any other pics of the boats interior. And as of now it is shrinkwrapped up in a cradle at the marina. Sorry but as soon as snow melts it will be out. The boat is very clean but has a few scratches here and there the bench and the sundeck were redone a few years ago by the original owner. I am looking for 12,500 firm with a trailer

Any pics of the 303 with the Blackhawks?

well 12500 doesnt sound unreasonable has it been bottom painted ? any moisture issues ? salt water use ? Im actually looking for a solid smaller turn key twin that will be the future home for the 502s and bravos currently still in my wrecked 26 Nova. any thoughts on how a 242 would handle bout 900 H.P. ? lol

the bottom had been painted but I had it removed. The original owner never prepped it just layed it on so 90%just blew off with the pressure washing I gave it when I bought it. No moisture issuesjust the usuall bs you find on a twenty + year old boat. The only issue it hass is on occasion some of the guages do not read correctly. Ground issue. I have yet to put my heart into finding it though.
As far as big blocks. I have two 454 425hp apiece I was going to drop in but when I started adding up the cost of drives and re- rigging I decided I would go bigger and get a boat to just drop them in.

I would guess with that hp and stern jacks or shorties high 80's low 90's

I have a 272 of the same vintage with twin LT1's pushing out 425 each after cams, heads, intakes, and headers. The boat runs great - low to mid 70's... I'm running Alpha shorties, so I have to be super careful though.
