Thanks, all of you members for the input, here is where I stand,
We drove from Canada to FL, to inspect Artemis, the boat is clean, but the paint job on it is not to our taste,The $$$ involved for repaint is major. this brings the sticker price above our budget.
As for Predator, we inspected the boat last week-end in 1000 Island Poker -Run, the boat is fairly clean,( fresh power) but cabin and cockpitt, requires investement to bring up to our tastes.(colors & fabrics+ no GENNY)
We also Inspected a Beautiful 01 in Swansboro NC, the boat is a soild 9, but major problem is the Quad set-up, Out here in our neck of the woods, it will take Zillion of years to sell it.
Unless a member can direct me to someone that can RE-RIG to a triple set-up cheap.

Thanks INSPECT for the input on ARTEMIS, the boat is nice, but we dont like the paint sceme on it, We made an offer to Scott from Suncoast, but he turned it down on behalf of the owner.

Unfortunatly on a 50 foot Norteck your gonna have to comprimise when looking for a used boat. There just aren't that many that were built. I may be wrong but I'm thinking maybe 20 or 30 built. Just not a lot of inventory on the market.

I know the owner is willing to deal on the boat, was your offer even submitted to him?? PS, there is a matching 450/550 tow rig that might be made part of the deal if you could come to the right number. Admittedly changing the entire paint scheme might be big bucks, but a good graphics guy could probably do some kind of blend/cover and come up with something unique.

Hello Inspect,
We inspected Artemis just before a road parade in Sarasota FL, The boat is up for sale by Suncoast Power Boats, The owner of Suncoast showed us the boat, after witch I made him an offer. Scott turned it down on the spot, he never called anyone. So I guessed he must of have the owner of Artemis full confidence to do so.

Actually more than you think.
# 54 is in mold now.
However they are either big gas or diesels and not much in between.

Fantom X, do you have to have a 50, why not try a 43. Im on my 3rd one and think they are a great size for over nighting and much easier of a tow. Good Luck in your decision. Jeff
