2006 Carrera 257 Effect X

[BADBLOWN572]

Alright, here is the deal, this thing needs to go down the road ASAP! I am willing to let this thing go for well below fair market value!
Updated price of $75K
The boat has completely been gone through within the last 3 weeks. I have installed a Mercury 500efi in the boat. It was completely checked out by Rob Clark @ Quality Performance at the very end of last year. He gave it a clean bill of health. :) The boat has new pop up mushroom cleats, scoop, 4 new Optima Blue Top Batteries, hatch pad, new grab handles, new swim steps (with boarding ladders), boat has been detailed, etc... It is ready to go to its new owner. Retail price of this boat is between $130-140K. I am willing to let it go for ALMOST 50% OFF OF RETAIL. In addition, I am willing to give a 60 day (or 20 hour) warranty on the boat. This warranty will cover the motor, drive, gimbal, steering, hull, etc... It however does not cover neglect or abuse!
At this time, the boat in in PERFECT condition. It looks like it just left the showroom. I just put in the 500efi and went through the whole boat. The motor has approximately 140 hours on it and is running strong. The outdrive (B-Max) has approximately 30 minutes of run time on it. All of the best hardware is in this boat. I personally built it and it was my baby. Now that I am building my own cruisers, this one has to go.
The boat is equipped with:
Open Bow
Bimini Top
New Dana Bimini Hardware
2004 Mercury 500efi
Heavy Duty Gimbal
B-Max Outdrive
Full Hydraulic Steering
Imco Fuel Valve
Halon System
Electronic Hatch Latch
Diamond Plated Engine Compartment
Polished engine compartment
Ridgid offshore motor mounts
Lightning double jacketed headers
Gaffrig Gauges
Zapco Amps (6K watts)
Alumapro Speakers (12 speaker & 4 subs)
Phatnoiz 50 Farad Cap
4ea. Optima Blue tops
Dana hatch hinges
Front bow storage
ski locker
Custom Interior
Extra grab handles
4 pop up Accon Cleats
2 pop up mushroom cleats
New step plates
New rims & tires on trailer
I need to put $70K in my pocket on this boat. [/COLOR][/B]That is what I need so that is where you have to be to make it yours. NADA says that the average retail of the boat is $87,575. That does not include 90% of the upgrades on this boat. Really, you are almost at 50% off of new retail! I just need it gone. It is taking up much needed space!
Anyone is welcome to take it to any boat shop of their choice and have it checked out 100% prior to sale. If anyone has any other questions, give me a call at 714-313-8757.

I am going to post up the pictures of the boat with the blower motor. That motor is out of the boat and is now a Mercury 500efi. Unfortunately I don't have pictures of it in the boat. I will get a couple this upcoming weekend. A scoop has been glassed over the blower hole and a hatch pad now covers the hatch. The pictures of the engine compartment show the details.

The 500h.p. and B-Max are pretty much bullet proof. Yes, the B-max does eat up a little more h.p. than a stock Bravo, but you won't break it with this motor. It would also be a great starting platform for someone to do a whipple or pro charger down the road. No need to worry if your stock Bravo will hold the h.p. The B-max will. :)

Nice boat. I saw you at the Springs Saturday morning while you were launching.

[BADBLOWN572]

Thanks for the compliments!!! After having this boat out this weekend, I remembered why I loved it so much. It is a great boat and deserves a home where it can run and play. Unfortunately I just don't have the time! :(

[BADBLOWN572]

New updated price. $75K Firm!

Might want to update the pictures so it reflects how it looks now.

I would love to, but the boat is sitting in Parker AZ and I am in CA. If I had the pictures, I would have already done it. :(
