I'M pretty sure he said 850$ it had trailer and a 50hp I think . Was a blue V hull I think .But I"m pretty sure he would take less . He had some crazy idea that he was going to put a shift motor in it . Like out of a dirt bike . And never did .

The one in Denver ? I bought my Voyager so my 2 year old well be able to get in and out at the beach. My big Sea Ray and your big boat just arent good for that .
And I deffently dont want her crawling across bow of my Valero or Vector . Its bad enough I have to retrain my jon boat buddies not to trash my paint .
Hope you get it then youll have something for this summer and can work on Vulture once its warm.

Yep. The hull will be for sale right away and put that Money back into the vulture. With a little bit of Chets help it will be on the water this year.
Then going to start working on converting the jet boat to an outboard. Hopefully that one doesn't take long.
Then hopefully another stream. A vking or a vector I'm thinking. Or maybe that hustler.
