you could pick up a decent hull for about 2.5k put 50-75 hours beefing up the transom and making sure its dry/strong. a built 2.5 offshore shorty is about 12k +/- 3 depending on what parts your using. figure 4k in gauges, jackplate and race steering, and then anywhere from $300-3k+ depending on the number of props your running (drag, top-end, load carrying etc).

3000
12000
4000
+1000
$20K
+/- a few k

all that to get probably the most dangerous thing on the water :wow2:

a guy down the lake from us had one with a 1250 merc (inline-6) and I thought that was where it was back in the day.

cheers.

edit: This one is a different hull but still only 17'. Its probobly the cleanest example in north america if not the world. he has used it something like 3 times in freshwater water only.

(let me know if the pics dont work and I will rehost them)

That guy sure has a stupid look on his face when he talks.

he's a big wanker it seems. but he takes great photo's and has more money than brains so I let it slide.

I think I'd rather have ~4,000 pounds and ~2,000 hp. I like my airplanes to have wings. :oh2:
