Thread: Ideas for another boat?

  1. #1
    gnarley
    I'm looking for ideas on another boat (USED). I have some criteria but not many ideas yet. We have 5 foot ite ess and are ready get a little bigger. Ours current boat runs plenty fast enough for a 20 (20' 6") and rides pretty good but the Delta can get wicked rough sometimes. We would like to get at least a 25' to make a difference and I don't want anything slower.
    Criteria
    Used 1996-2002
    Length 25-26'
    Locking cuddy
    Total length on trailer with folding tongue if posible 29'
    Total weight on trailer 5500 lbs
    Windshield that actually deflects
    Head
    Sink
    Microwave
    70-80 MPH
    21+ degree deadrise
    Handles 3+ foot chop
    Seating for 5-6
    Bolsters would be a plus
    FI 454-502
    Any input or ideas would be helpful
    Thanks

    Yeah, and throw twin turbines into the budget to get all that shit up to 70~80.

    Size is the problem, I like the Nordic Heat but it weighs in at 5800 on the trailer, our RV is rated at 5500. The Heat also might be a bit long with an optional folding tongue. There are a few boats that might have what I'm looking for but there are a few to choose from like Lavey Nuera, Eliminator Eagle, Checkmate Convincer or others that I haven't thought of yet that might be close.

    On the trailer with twin axles ours will weigh under 5500. 27 feet long.
    Hell, you can play up in the sloughs with a jetboat!

    He needs a spot for the girlies to wizz.
    A deck boat would be a sweet companion toy for an RV, though.

    With that said... Add fuel and all the goodies and that boat is way over 5500 POUNDS....
    My boat is 3800 with trailer coming in at 1800 that is a combined weight of 5600 and all the goodies im just shy of 7000 full loaded...
