A friend of mine has this boat and we are unsure as the MFG. Is there anyone who would know what it is worth?
This is what I know.
1996 18' Jet boat with a chevy 350, 120 hours, in excelent shape garage kept only. weight of about 650lbs. single axel trailer included. Possibly made by TROPHY CUSTOM MARINE but I have never heard of them?
Here are some photos

Nice boat. Great shape too.
You realize that one day (soon), you'll be wanting a big block for it ......... :idea:
Don't worry, it's a disease that hits almost all jetters, ....

I would think build a 454 out of one of those world motown AL small blocks.
