No Problem, this boat is for sale at a huge discount, mid 70s on insurable power. best of luck with your decision...the AO Hp500 Vortech is a HUGE DEAL along with the millions of 25 daytonas that can be found.
Just a little piece of advice here (I'll keep my opinions to myself) but check on insurance before you do anything. I know I was looking at 25' Daytonas and 26' DCB's with HP500's for power a year ago or so and couldn't find anyone who would touch it where the insurance would be less than the boat payments a year, and those were only 90 mph boats and naturally aspirated. Just a suggestion before you get locked into something you can't insure.
I appreciate your concern Jordy but your statement doesnt make much sense.....Unless A. You were gonna finance the boat for the rest of your life....B. You only had 20% to put down or C. You were actually trying to insure a 43' Nor-Tech........
Seriously though, If you have experience or have ridden in any of these hulls and are able to give a personal preference........Lay it on me!
That is a sweet AO Goodtimes...If it could be had under 50k it would be a deal. That Daytona also is nice but I wouldn't pay 68K for anything thats going on 7 years period.

I was just making a suggestion and yes it makes a lot of sense. 9 out of 10 online companies that I found said no right off the bat because they were cats. My company that I have my house and trucks through, wouldnt' touch either one of them. Had something to do with the horsepower to size ratio.
My comment regarding the insurance not being less than the boat payments on a yearly basis was a little tongue in cheek. I was planning on putting better than 50% down and the payments would have only been a couple hundred a month (and paid off in a hurry) or $2400 a year. Insurance, where I could find it, was double that because the 500hp mark and 70 mph mark was exceeded on a cat style boat that was under 30.'
Understand now? Buy whatever you want. I was just trying to help by suggesting that you find out what insurance is going to cost before you sign the dotted line on a 110mph boat that is uninsurable. If you plan on buying it and running without insurance, just let me know when you're going to be out and I'll make sure I'm nowhere around.

I'd look at the Daytona or the AO. Don't know what your idea of big water is though.
Maybe even consider the Force Offshore 26' or 29' Cats, alot of boat for the money and layed out nice.
24-26ft range and 110mph?Your going to need a blower motor for that and the insurance is going to be high.Sounds as if your wanting a newer boat for under 50k also....Your going to be shopping for awhile for that one.

Well Gordy, I dont see how 50% down and 200 bucks a month pays off anything in a hurry.....$2400.00 a year? Were you talking a 10 year note? Is 10 years a hurry? You have to shorten the life of that note to make your insurance to look cheap
Anyhow, thanks for reminding me how we pay way too much for ALL our insurance policies.
Now, do you have any actual input on these hulls????

Sorry, I don't remember the exact numbers as it was a while ago and I ended up not going that route. I picked some off the top of my head to make it simple so you might understand the point I was making. But screw it, buy whatever you want. You asked for input and suggestions. I gave mine.
the insurance is going to be high.
Do you have any input on the hulls???? Apparently insurance isn't an issue. I tried to help and it's gone in one ear and out the other. I'm done here.
JMC..the AO is owned by Drew Down, pm him for more details...the daytonas have been in the trader for a while, just because something is 60 doesnt mean it cant be taken home in the 50 range, cash is king!!110mph for 50k is a huge dollar per mile an hour equation to find, so goodluck....
my boat is new, insurable and put a 502 base carb motor and you should hit 100 with around 700hp....best of luck cheers
Check these out. They are all not 110 mph,,,maybe a couple, but some are under 50K and 40K. Dont know if they are still available though.
