NICE RIDE! With this pic, I can almost guarantee your sell. Especially for $6500 for a turnkey cruiser! Get that title ready. :D

That is a nice ride but I don't care for the seating arrangement. It is going to sell fast......v-drive

I am shocked to see a turn-key cruiser still sitting here for $6500, especially right before summer. :)

Nice boat but I am looking for a bit more cockpit room.

dmontzsta
02-10-2006, 04:14 PM
You can change the interior on that easily. Below is a shot of my dads v-drive, which will have less room inside due to the driveshaft, trans and gearbox facing the other way. I dont know if it is the same exact hull, but this should work in that boat as well, but with more space around the engine bay cause of it being a jet.

For $6500, you could use the extra cash saved and switch the interior. :)
We can seat 8 in there, 6 "legally and safely"

Here's whats in mine... seating for 8... but you'd better be good friends... 6 comfortably.

I would rather have the seating like a car personally. I would feel like my passengers are alot more safe.

v-drive
02-10-2006, 05:40 PM
I am pretty flexible. That's a fine boat, in my wifes words, you could re-do the seating but there would still be that thing sticking out the back.

Congrats Ben, that is a good cruiser, it would be perfect with a V-Drive, but the jet will do just fine for you. Make sure you keep your name "v-drive" though. Since everyone knows you as it. I just got back from a trip in the Eliminator, fires right off and runs 5000rpm all day through 1-2' chop. It is ALOT different than the Lavey, when you go through wakes you still cringe, but it just mows them over while you hold your mountain dew. :D
