    Well, this boat has been sitting in a barn for the last few years, so it hasn't run lately. I played around with it for a few minutes today and got it at least sputtering, so that's a good sign. May need a carb rebuild, a fuel pump rebuild, or both. At least the engine isn't locked up!

    May keep this one, may sell this one. I am definitely keeping the '99 SNOB, and am definitely selling the 2001 Sport Nautique.

    Good looking boat. Glad your gonna ditch the tower. Good luck with the flip.

    Man your on a boat project mission. Is this a business endeavor to fix up and flip all these boats? Does this 351 have the original electronic ignition still? I think 93 was the first year of the electronic ignition system. Have fun with this one, cool boat.

    It is in pretty good shape. It is supposed to have a vibration while underway, possibly a bent shaft. We'll see. It also needs a steering wheel, a good gelcoat buff, and a few little odds and ends. Should be a quick repair!
    Oh yeah, I remember seeing this one for sale. It's been sitting a while after the rock strike/new prop, isn't that right? Hopefully it needs a tune-up and a driveshaft, plus the cosmetics... and not much else.

    Is it a GT-40? I know they weren't offered with that, but I also know how easy they are to swap in for a carbureted 351.

    Tower aside, it looks pretty nice from those few pics. What all does it need?

    Ditch the tower and find a 454 to thrown in. Great little boat with a lot of potential. Still love my Barefoot from time 2 time, although the 230 performs flawless.

    Any guesses as to what's in here? It isn't the 454... Sure wish it was.
