Another Herbst boat. Thing looks very clean. 65k but needs power and 6's (its cut for 6's). So, you'd need at least another 60k to get it in the water, but what a bitchin ride.

This has been listed here on RDP too. Convenient that they don't show cockpit pics. It's a single row of 3 across, that's it. The huge (staggered?) engine bay eliminates the option for a cockpit therefore making the boat VERY undesirable. It was previously listed with power (1050's?) and 6's and never sold. The price then and now is reflective of the cockpit layout. Bummer really, it's a beautiful boat. Engines and drives had SUPER low hours too. Would have been a fun poker run boat for a few people.

100% this. Went and looked at it before they stripped the motors and drives. No real cabin (4 couches and a v-berth). and only 3 seats (stand up bolsters).

was priced @ $150 with the 1075's

It’s being sold by Joe Malich who strips the motors and drives out of every boat he gets his hands on and parts it all out.

Yeah. Irritating he does that actually. But I guess his math works because he does it time and time again.

shot of the interior. Yeah the staggers take up a lot of room but could be a cool poker runner after changing the cockpit around a bit. Straight Catalina ski boat set up here.

Our friends had one and ran it for a very long time. Was fed with flames and 575’s. Was at boat brokers and sold recently. Saw it super cat fest west weekend running around. They really enjoyed there’s too.

I love the OG 400. They should have never tweaked the deck.

Dream boat of mine.

I was 8-10 when I saw it the first time at the LA boat show. I believe the first one was Nick Barron’s?

Tank,

It would cost a few bucks but could gain a lot of cockpit space redoing the transom and doing the new motors side by side.
I always liked this boat.

I’d love to own this. But to take it back to a non staggered engine set up and repower it would be a ton of money and work.

How are you and the family doing?
We are doing good just busy and life gets in the way of doing any trips. I would love to come down and visit!! We got a new coach a couple of years ago but only gone on a few weekend local trips. This boat is bad ass.

Drives me nuts him and others that have made it a business model to strip good boats . Worse than regular flippers. My Boats would be worth more in parts also but could never.
Agreed 100%. And his prices are always high.

This. Sad that he disassembled it. I don’t see this boat with outboards either?

This same boat was listed in Phoenix CL...all instrumentation yanked out currently as well. Story there says "was going to swap it out for triple outboards but no time"
Be a neat boat, but would take a ton of coin to get going...and more to get it setup how I'd want it.

Yeah he overprices everything, gives it a few weeks, it doesn’t sell (shocking) so he strips it all apart. Like you said I guess the numbers work for him but just seems kinda sleezy to me.

No fucking way. Not only would it be expensive but slow and boring. Terrible like the name suggests. Boat looks cool but a barge that carries 3??? Nah

Waaaay to big even for mead. Ocean only. Twin 900’s and just cruise. Ditch the stagger setup...it will never be fast...better to have space in this thing.

That is why wealthy people are wealthy.. they aren’t emotionally attached to shit. It is a tool that served its purpose.
