Ran across this one today a little ritsey for my taste but someone may be willing to pay would make a nice boat for some one

That seems pretty affordable, nice looking boat, all the heavy lifting already done with a repower with the best engines. Looks like this could be you, Tim. Better get down there while she's still available.

If it's as nice as it looks up front (not enough pictures to really know, and they often aren't enough to know even when there are a lot) were I in the market I'd have to go look at it and make a lowball but not entirely-outrageous offer, all-cash, and see what happens.

Listing is poor. Very few pictures and limited info. If the speed figures are correct 23kt cruise and 27kt WOT, she's way too slow. If it is a decent boat, it may be worth a look but I agree she's priced a bit high.

Yeah- this is a Series II 45, isn't it? It ought to be faster with M11s in it, a lot faster. Evne in 2005 they made pretty good power, and this is a fast hull.

The later hulls that had the 550Hp 6V92's will run close to that. My 46C could hit those numbers with 550HP 6V92TA's. They probably took the speed figures from the Power Boat Guide. If not, the re-power wasn't done right or she's very under propped. Might be a boat worth investigating but only if they're more realistic on price.
