That Maximus is interesting but he wants a cabin. He actually had a deposit on that green 46 OL but the deal fell through. Thanks for the input guys, keep it coming.

Problem with that boat is its the old style cockpit so after converting to turbos you'd be a$$ backwards in an older boat.

Jupiter Sunsation

and the 46 is out of production now......old hull, old cockpit and expensive repower. That boat was cheaper when the NH owner was trying to sell it also.

This is the best deal out there for the size/paint/hours. Even paying for a refresh during ownership wouldn't kill you resale wise.

That boat isn't a 2012 and it went swimming.

How's resale on a rolled boat ?

soggy bottom

So what's it worth? maybe half of what they are asking.

Guy is asking about a big power boat and some suggests 2 black thunders?!??! That's funny ****!

Typical keyboard cowboy making another useless post contributing more useless negativity to this site

To further contribute to anyone shopping for a 400k used boat (which any used boat will additionally require 10s of thousands put back into it)

Building a new boat for close to the total invested in a used boat might be an option worth looking into, again not for everyone, but hey that's what these threads are all about. Helping others shop for their next boat that isn't just listed here in the classifieds.

Black Thunder was in the process of updated two of their boat models and they currently have a 43 stag flat deck and a 46 hull ready to finish. Unfortunately things did not go as planned with their investor during the "recession" in this industry. BUT its an option someone might want to explore

43 Flat Decks are NOT slow boats, here's a 43 that wins its class year after year and can easily break 150mph....

I personally like the 45 Maximus listed above! Who needs a cabin when they can probably also afford a Hotel and a nice Cruiser!

The cabin issue isn't even about staying in a boat or at a hotel, its just about the fact of just having somewhere to climb in and throw stuff. Even if its a half cabin type deal, that would work. The unfinished area under the deck has come in handy on multiple occasions on my boat if you get what I'm saying.

Converting any boat to a "new"style (1350)turbo boat is going to be expensive unless you know of a used set of engines that are "cheap". The price of the engines/trannys/drives new is ridiculous. Considering hes not going to keep it yet 2 to 3 years, prolly be best finding one with them already installed.
