Money crunch forces sale of my 1997 edge stealth 19 ft. jet. I bought it from phoenix about 14 months ago without the engine. It is ready to run and only needs motor. It had a blown chevy big block in it . Dan Nelson in phoenix set this boat up. He held the blown gas jet record then. It is a beautiful boat with white base and yellow flamed graphics across the nose. Must sell $9500. phone gary daytime at 318-687-9088 or at night 318-470-1482 cell.

Are you talking about Matt Brown's old boat?

People could get confused. Dan's boat held records.
The one in the top picture (Matt's) ran in the upper 80's with a tunnelram when he first got it.
He then sold it, bought something else, then bought it back again. This time he put the roots blower setup you see in the picture, it ran in the 90 mph range .
Later that season he swapped blowers and went with a PSI centrifugal blower, cranked the boost up some, and ran a little over 100 mph.
If this is the boat you're selling, it's real nice.
This was Nelson's boat.

This is Matts old boat. It is ready to run, except for motor. Pump trailer and all. Need money to finish house,and I already have one boat. I really wanted to get this boat running, but it has not been posssible so far. I would rather sell some engine parts and keep the boat and get it running whenever possible. I feel the boat would sell faster than engine parts and I need the money now. Thanks for posting the picture of the boat for me as I have no clue how to do it. Thanks gary

Bumping this one guys. I know this boat and it's previous owner. It's got all the best stuff in it (less engine). Matt, the previous owner has never bought cheap crap in the four years that I've know him (and he's had lots of toys). The seller is saying "make me an offer".

Gary, That's a good price and lot's of good parts on the boat. You just have to wait for a buyer now.
Unfortunately with jet boaters you get a lot of them who will buy a 1975 whatever because its cheap and then add $ 6000 worth of new parts until they have way more money into it than what its worth and it's still a 1975 whatever.
I ran into the same thing when selling my JJ Cheyenne.
I ended up selling it bare and without the trailer.
