If you can afford both , over time one will hit a home run... I was searching for the open speedster at one time. I kind of like the styling & only made Two years... This one looks good with MErc.
Usually have a V-4 OMC. .. Heard they are tail heavy & need at least a 100 hp to plane out..
. Rear pic looks like a set of trim tabs & mota whale tail added , every thing to help LIFT the ass.. One pic looks like a 6 cyl Merc & another pic looks like a Four cyl .. If bidding I would comfirm 6 cyl or better yet get the Serial # ... One member last week bought a Blue band 140 hp Advertised Merc & turned out to be a 90 HP .!!

I repowered it for him and had here here at the house for awhile. Boat got a lot of attention, very unique design. Nice rails on those boats. Check this box to be notified of replies to this topic.
