Don't know anything about that hull other than it has a C500 vdrive in it. If he buys it he'll want to brace it up. Other than that, dude has some fancy foot tattoos.

Just out of curiosity since it seems to be a real mild setup.. Why do you think it needs additional support?

Because they aren't solid mounted they tend to "walk" or wobble at idle. This will wear the output flange and prop shaft. The prop shaft is held in the flange by a couple set screws only. If it gets sloppy in there the prop shaft can come out under hard deceleration. Which tends to create an "OH FUCK" situation.
So this thing's a unicorn....no one knows anything or has any knowledge about these boats or manufacturer?
Anything jump out to the v drive guys as good/bad?
Quick internet search seems as if there was only 4 of these model every built, probably be better of with a spectra lol
any details?
I tried buddy....lol
I know, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, thinking a blind guy would fall in love with the ole spectra.
Prolly want to check the gas tanks to see if they are fiberglass.

Looks like they bought it last night...
Like mentioned it was built for/by the owner. The same family has owned it since then.
Lots of receipts and pictures...kind of cool just needs some clean up and love.

Great looking ride!Cool seeing these post! I bought the boat about a year ago, ran it with the 460 but wanted to go faster so my dad and I built a 580ci bbc and th400, changed out the c-500 for a split case. I rewired the entire boat new gauges and fuel system also. The boat runs a solid 75mph now and is one of the best ridding boat I have ever been in. It’s a heavy boat they went crazy on the layup.
