I agree. I was just pointing out it is listed for $47,500, not $42,000.

I got to add that it is probably the cleanest older year 33 around once you pay 30000 then sell motors and put a couple blower motors in that boat you at 50000 and going 80

I saw better pics on Facebook when the last owner was selling it and the boat is very CLEAN! I hope you would be going a lot faster than 80 with blower engines.

Im sure thats a pretty heavy boat maybe 85 with twin 700 s

Actually they're pretty light for their size. AJ's ran 76mph with 496s and 84 with 525s going off memory. Granted his was the newer hull, but I don't think there were any major hull changes. Just a slow raising of the X dimension over the years.

I think the boat runs 78 as-is if I remember right.

Didn't realize it was so old. Still a nice looking boat

Iguess every time i look at it it gets nicer and nicer and those motors look really great i can t seem to get the age out of my head but if its kept up like that i guess it fly s pretty good

PPs were well built
if u keep them waxed,dry them out when done with it, store it indoors or just out of direct sun/rain
the yr dont matter much,,,its how they were cared for
only change on them was the taller gunnel in mid 90s
and as stated they raised the x in the later yrs
we have lots of 33s here in tx and la
and all with stock 502s run 76-78
we have 1 with 650 hp 572s that runs mid 80s all day long loaded with people and fuel
Jason got pedal pushed back and its 100+ on 750hp
these are 7,000lb wave crushers with deep deg wave crushers for their size
not the fastest hull if just want speed as is stout built with no pad
but awesome for good speed through the slop when others back off
I like the lower gunnel hull as it feels more like a hot rod boat with the lower cg to water
some like the taller gunnels to get away from the water

I actually like the looks of the lower sides and exhaust over the rub rail on the older ones, as long as there is no swim platform. But, didn't they go to a fiberglass cockpit liner when they raised the sides? (I believe it was 94-95)

The older boats a couple of guys called them stick boats on power play blogs and from more than couple its the floors and cabin are made of wood like a lot of boats even now but ya from i think 95 all fiberglass only wood used in transom and stringers and higher sides also and i would just think that YA you would really want a newer style and its a big change in my opinion
