Wow.. when you wake up and say “ how can I spend foolishly today “

Hopefully it was a salvage title? Even then it’s painful to see. There was a convertible someone dropped on a outboard and had video I saw actually running. Can’t find now it but it’s coming.

I hear ya matt. My dad sent me that pic today from an email he received from a buddy. I told him I’d post it here . Apparently it’s a jet boat. 🤔

Probally bought and aftermarket kit and did the conversion. Hopefully no one would convert an original to a boat.

O.M.G. That's has to be a fiberglass kit? Either way, something like that at Barrett-J ackson, where stupid money flows, would be even... stupider.

I'd freakin love to have that!

If I'm going to buy a Corvette boat, it's the MTI ZR48.

We sold that boat or one very close to it at Barrett Jackson a a few years ago. It turns out the guy is from Tulsa Oklahoma and a pretty cool cat. He invited me and a couple of buddies and his big semi trailer that he had on display along with the boat and the boat trailer. This MTI was 55 ft long and would go crazy fast.

I can't find the pictures of the boat itself, but here is a shot of us inside his trailer. Look on the screen in the background and you'll see the boat on a screen that kept rotating images and video.

Yea those were cool. I have a picture somewhere on here from when I was at Barrett Jackson as they had one there for sale. It was in much rougher shape then that one though.
