Interesting question for older Superboat owners
My boat is a 1979 repainted with 1998 power and lots of rerigging. New interior coming in a few weeks. (Just ordered Allison high back buckets).
Anyway, what did a 1979 21 Superboat cost new? I paid $8500 for my hull only last August and spent about $3000 on it since. I'll bet that's about 3 times what a hull cost new back in 79 right???

at100plus,
I am running 2.4 carbs, with 26 pitch lab finished choppers. My best speed to date is radard 87 at 8000 rpm. The motors are balanced and worked up a bit. It is a 91 hull Kevlar light layup with a two foot notched transom. It truly is a SUPERBOAT!!!

Mike I put a fiberglass fairing from a tempest on it last summer-it looks even cooler now.John popped one out before they trashed all the old 30 deck molds.What a difference.The hull is an 82,but was solid as a rock.Its got balsa cored decks and foam bulkheads- Its been alot of work,but it came out awesome-I hired out the glass work only at the transom(now 4" thick with 24" stringers where the motor bed was to anothe 1.5" bulkhead aft of the rear seat.We probably over built it but I'm alot happier being safe than sorry,Especially when offshore hard....Hey,yours looks sweet too,I've never ridden in a 21.It looks wild!

I'm going to have to help this thread, come on guys!
I hope the owners of these boats don't mind that I'm posting for them. Here are some nice Superboats:
This first one is really original. I saw it on the Perf Boat Club of Canada website.
