Now I know some of you are thinking there's no way, but keep in mind, it does have a 30 shot of nitrous :D

[Some Kind Of Monster]

The boat has not been ran this year and is still winteriest
LMAO :)
30 shot :rolleyes:
At least he admits it: This is an item i am listing for a friend SO I DONT KNOW EVERYTHING
Here's my favorite part: But you must understand that this is a racing engine and allow it is very reliable it is only guarenteed to run great and go fast!!! it just if you hit nitros wrong it could blow motor,and it only has one shot left in bottle
Is it just me or (in the third picture in the series) is the right exhaust manifold actually another left and just laid in there to look installed?

[TRUMP TIGHT]

I say, 70-75 w/ the shot. W/ the perfect set up!
Ebay where fantasies never even come close to reality!!:D

[TRUMP TIGHT]

Oh, a 30 shot? Whats the point?

[RCB19]

I guess I better get to work if I want to run with the E-BAY hit squad. It sounds like thoes boys have some fast shit over there.

[YeLLowBoaT]

If that boat would actaully run 95, just think of all the ppl you could take money from /race for pinks... :)
Its got to be the ot pipes that are attached to logs.... those are worth 35 mph right there. :crossx:

How could you miss the mirrored engine compartment :) but what ever you do don't hit the NOS button wrong :220v:
Sleek

[LGCDEVIL]

Of course it'll do 95, it has a "BIG CARB" :)

[YumaBiesemeyer]

I hurd them there Nitro boats go even faster than that :rollside: .
:idea: Thinking the cheapest way for me to get more top end out of my boat is to try and sell it on ebay.

[gregr1971]

i actually asked the guy a queston and he replied:
Me : are you sure that this boat does 95mph??? seems awful fast for that hull design.Seems like it would be dangerous,i wouldn't feel good about selling someone a boat that wasn't designed to go that fast and them hurt theirself or someone, especialy if they hit the 30 shot too soon!good luck on the sale.
seller:i was told the boat will do 95+ and i have no reason to belive it wont other than a lot of people telling me it won't.I believe that on the bottle it will go very very fast for a boat of it's deseign. all i can say is if you know the man im sell this for you would belivev it too. thank you very much

This is a joke, I cant believe the bidding is up to $7,000. Someone is going to get ripped off.

[Oldsquirt]

Strange looking loader.......
Looks like one of the cast aluminum loaders that were produced and sold by GTH Marine from right here in the S.F. East Bay. I believe they were made back in the 80's. He used to advertise in Hot Boat but closed up shop a few summers back.

[maxwedge]

Strange looking loader.......
I noticed that too. Maybe that's the secret?
On the plus side, I now have new hopes of selling my Sidewinder for $7000. :D

[ZTFab]

I'm willing to bet that he means KMH NOT MPH........seeing that he is from Canada.
95 KMH would = 59 MPH
But then again, what do I know. I'd probably hit the NOS button wrong, load up that "Big Carb" and fock everything up. :p

[YeLLowBoaT]

Interesting... all of the bidder have 0 feed back and have started ebay accounts with in the last 30 days... :rolleyes:

[Hardin18454]

Hell, I have hopes of selling my remote controled boat for $7,000 now.

[Hardin18454]

Good point ZTFab. I really hope that is what this poor guy means.

[ZTFab]

Either way, it's misrepresentation and to me, that's a big no-no. :mad:
I truly have nothing against Canadians but why does it seem like the items being sold on Ebay from Canadians are always shady??
I have had 3 experiences with fake and/or misrepresented ads from Canada.....it always makes me skeptical.

[Oldsquirt]

I'm willing to bet that he means KMH NOT MPH........seeing that he is from Canada.
He is willing to sell to Canada, but he is in Michigan.
No doubt he believes the boat will do 95mph. After all, and I quote the seller's comment, "all i can say is if you know the man im sell this for you would belivev it too" :D

[ZTFab]

Sorry, I skimmed the ad as his grammar is horrific and he should be banned for it!!! ha ha ha
Didn't read that he was in Michigan.

I hear the high bidder on this 95mph boat is ***boat's very own BigDoug :rollside: :rollside: :rollside: :rollside: :D :D

[Hardin18454]

I just skimed it too. I felt as though I was looseing brain cells as I was reading it.

[FLEA DIDDY]

Man you guys are slacking. Check out pics 8 and 9. Notice the N20 sylinoid in pic 8? Not attached to a plate nor is their a plate between carb and intake. Now look at pic 9 no N20 sylinoid.........hmmm.

[80Dimarco]

The funny part is 4 people bid on that sucker LOL....
I would be suprised if it went 55mph...
