Anybody know anything about this kinda boat?

[BigB9000]

dude wants $500 for it, with no title.

Im looking for a V-bottom thats a little better threw the water than my flat bottom.

I already have the engine/controls I would need for it. But, anybody guess the year? size? ride quality?

Oh. you familiar with them? any links to pictures of them?

i'd think if the motor on it runs and no rot, thats not a bad price
do you need a title in ca? we dont here in co. you do need a title fore the trailer but you can get a home built title if you have lost the original
almost every state is different.
it looks like in the picture that it has enough vee to ride pretty good

well I planed to take the OB off my current boat and toss it on there. So I really dont care if it runs or not.

And yet, you need registration in CA.

The trailer can be home built too.

I have a good looking home built trailer I keep around to get a trailer title and plate. Then just do a quick swap-aroo ;-)

Use To Build Boats For Harris Kayot In Indiana. Left There And Started Working For Fleetwood Rv's Now I'm A Freightliner Diesel Mechanic. But When I Worked At Fleetwood In Decatur, Indiana Right Down The Road From The Plant, They Build Thunderbird Boats. Looks To Be Around 90-95. And I've Been Told There A Damn Good Boat. I'd Do It.

Go To Formulaboats.com Not Much Info There But It's A Start Also Mon. Morn Call (260)724-9111, That's The Factory Number And They Can Give You Info. You'll Need The Vin#. And Most States Allow You To Apply For A Lost Title, But You Would Need A Notarized Bill Of Sale.

I've had a 23' Deep V Thunderbird and a 15' trihull. Both very tough boats - well built.

Re: Anybody know anything about this kinda boat?

went and looked at it today.

rated for 6 people @ 1000 pounds. I wrote down the serial but its in the van.

It has a large -what looks to be- fuel tank fiberglased down in the center of the thing. making an uneven surface everywhere. 125hp johnson is seized.

hull looked like it had no rot. but i didnt move all the stuff he had in it out. the $500 price tag and how much work it needed just wasnt worth it. esp that i would have to title it still. and the tags that were on it last were 1981


back to my hunt for a small V-bottom
