I sure like the price. Long way for me to go look at it to be disappointed by the condition though. Been there, done that before.

I like the red and white scheme, gives it a classic look. Can't tell much on the condition by the pics so hopefully someone here knows the boat.

I like that boat a lot because the Bulldogs are great 540s from what I've heard.

Big blowers and imcos would make it a 100mph. But then you'd have put 2x into it lol! Wouldn't be any other straight bottom boats even close though.

I fear it could be the iconic red, black and yellow brochure boat (with Bull Dogs) that Joel Ross was giving rides on at the 2001 Miami Boat show. I even have a Velocity Poker Runs T-shirt featuring the boat. That's definitely not a factory paint job in the classified so perhaps it is the brochure boat repainted on the cheap. What a shame if it's the same boat and no doubt it's very rough just like Tom heard.

I bought the boat labor day 2015. Someone overheated both engines and cracked them. Finally got her running a couple weeks ago. Yes it was painted and it was in powerboat magazine yellow, black white red. I would love to get that issue if anyone has it. It is now white and red with stripe down the middle. Paint could have been better on the sides but bottom looks great. I went through upper drives, installed 572's 4.5x4.5 in her. After market 320cc heads, ported, 9.2 comp, hydraulic roller cams with. 237 int. and 243 ex. and. 640 lift.It fought me the whole way and still is. Messing with props and drive hieght. Anyone know where these drives run best on this boat. Looking for better cruise. Prop shafts are 3.5 inches below deadline behind the stakes. Pete
