FormulaMatt Posted July 15, 2015 Report Share Posted July 15, 2015 Hey All, As a few of you know, I have moved down to NC on the coast and need to sell some items. This is possibly one. I will be back in OH on the 23rd leaving again the 26th. If I don't sell it, I will have it shipped down here. As some of you know this was a huge project for me and as soon as it got completed...it was stolen and stripped. I put it back together with what I had around, which is not near enough power. It only has a stock 305 chevy in it now. Top speeds are very slow, but will get on plane and cruises around 30ish range. If you want a boat that looks great, sounds great and gets alot of attention and don't care about the speed...this is it and it is ready to go. Maybe good for family boat... Otherwise it really needs repowered with a bigger engine. I had a SBC stroker in it before it was stripped. This time around I was going to go Big Block. now I am going Big Boat and Big Block instead It was professionally painted about 6-7 years ago and the paint is still about a 8 out of 10. A few chips here or there from the cover snaps and a small rash spot or two from the lady trying to dock it The interior was also redone around the same time. All is in great shape minus the Black widow embroidered in the rear hatch. The strings deteriorated and rotted due to water and sun. The other black embroidery has also faded. The remaining 98% of the normal vinyl is great. Photos below show the embroidery when still newish...I should have left it in indoor storage... I will let it go if it sells quick for $5500. It has not been in the water this year as I moved down here at the end of winter. I also unfortunately will not have time for water trials. I know with these terms this is a long shot...but figured I would offer it up as I am buying a BIG upgrade down here. Couple vids: With the stroker - With current 305 - more - A few photos: http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w211/Matt86K5/94A92765-318B-4A2F-A749-A73A677E3241.jpg http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w211/Matt86K5/F2324CCE-D784-4967-8A40-B23D7E767794_1.jpg http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w211/Matt86K5/Formula%20Boat/DSCN1565-1.jpg http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w211/Matt86K5/Formula%20Boat/DSCN1918-1.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FormulaMatt Posted July 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2015 I wondered what happened to the barn up north Sold it a year or so ago. My house there closes on the 24th. I bought a house down here on Emerald Isle and am enjoying semi-retired life. After I take delivery of my new toy I will post up some pics... :fuckyeah: What year is the boat and what is the out drive,Bravo or Alpha? How old is the drive? The boat is a 1986. It is an Alpha drive. Not sure how old it is...I bought it from Kunkels Marine when they put the boat back together for me. We obviously did the bellows and such at the same time. They went through it when they put it together and said it was good. It has only had Amsoil in both the engine and outdrive since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coltboostin Posted July 28, 2015 Report Share Posted July 28, 2015 Assume the boat is in C bus? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FormulaMatt Posted July 28, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2015 That is correct. Until I get ready to have it shipped down here. It is stored at a storage facility right up the road from Alum Creek Marina. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
