I am looking for a new toy. It needs to be 20-25 feet long and preferable a v-bottom with a stern-drive, Bravo One or better. I would also like it to be an open-bow, but closed bows are not out of the question. 60 mph would be nice so I can beat my dad's boat :-). Oh, and it has to be under $25,000. If anyone has any ideas on a boat that would fit my needs I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advance for your help.

clean and neat. Nice boat. Always indoors, Asking $26,000.

Tommy,
Since I want a new toy also and haven't seen anyone list what you asked for..
How about an older Powerplay 23' with 502/Bravo1?
Runs great but looking at a 30' Velocity or.....

Here's a lower cost option for you. Will put you into the boat you want and leave about $10 large in your pocket!

I just bought another boat this weekend in Fort Lauderdale.
So I promissed I would sell my 1998 Donzi 22ZX. I just bought her in March 2004. She has 146 original hours on her. Red hull, glass windshield, white bottom and deck. Powered by a 7.4L Bravo 1
with all new since March 2004;
Pro Charger @ 5 psi
"Custom Carb Shop" carb
Complete MSD Ignition 6
EMI Exhaust
complete new fuel system with top of the line ATI equipment
S.S. Braided lines
Gafrig gauges (boost and fuel psi)
Red - Martin Marine trim tabs (12 x16)
Pioneer speakers
trailer tires
2 - Bravo 1 props. 4blade, 26p and 28p
She is better then new. Originaly ran 53 mph @ 4800 rpm
Now runs WOT = 74 mph @ 4800 with on the tuning 80 is not out of the question.
You can cruise all day @ 60 mph @ 4000 or less
If you want some pictures, reply or email and I'll send them over. The Boat is at the Toy Box in Bullhead (under cover and covered) but will be coming home to Phx. this weekend to make room for my new boat delivery. If you want to test her at Lake Mohave this weekend call (602-228-4960)
Price :idea: - I bought her for $28,000. invested $13,900 in above modifications. I'm open for offers, I never get my money back, but she is beautiful, fast and fun.
Thanks for the tread,
Chuck

How about a 1994 Hallett 24 open bow walk thru with a 475 hp 502 that runs
great with all the whistles and bells for about $32,000? Call me if you're
interested in seeing photos etc.
