Thanks for all the interest in my boat. Just some back ground information, I have been a boat builder for a living since 1995 and in 2000 I started my own custom rigging company. My fater aquired the boat in 1996 the boat sat in a covered lift or a heated garage it's entire life till I got the boat down to florida in 2003. We ran the hell out of it until it started slowing down and driving different. Thats when we started the full tear down in 2005, much to my disappointment, the floor, transom, stringers, and bulkheads were all rotten due to not being completely covered in glass. LOL I guess my boat was built on friday! We then decided to put it back together makeing a few changes and taking alot of weight out of the boat. The boat doesn't have the playpen. When it was said and done we took out 850lbs of rotten crap and replaced it with 310lbs of fresh material. We ran the boat for another year and a half when we decided to finish what we started by painting, interior, ect. NO BONDO HEAR ALL IN GLASS!!!!! There's alot of suttle changes to the dash ect. that you wont notice till you see it in person. As far as the speed is concerned, the boat will run 88-90 all day long. The best it's ever run was 94.6 at river ranch in fresh water. I try not to run the boat in salt water. It has been in it maybe 5 times. My wife is a little OCD so we have to make it perfectly clean when we come back so I don't like taking it out there. The motor is stock other than removing the vaccum fuel pump and running and electric in the boat to the VST. Set up, set up, set up!!!!! Not to mention the 3/8 hook in the pad has been removed. As far as price, I don't need to sell it, but try to replace it anywhere near what I am asking at $25,000, with a spare powerhead. Thanks any other questions fire away. Jeff
