If it's the 385HP 454Mag, then it should run right around 70 I would think.

Mine has the carb 454, Lightning Headers and tweaked prop and does 70 gps at Elsinore and Havi. I think you should be there with the extra 20hp and closed bow? Aren't the closed bow 210's the same bottoms as Vectors?

The 1994 I had with a carb 454 did 70mph. I did not see it in the for sale section, how much are you asking? How bad were the blisters and scratch they spoke of in the ad?

It should do 70 with a quarter tank of gas, just you in it and a 5 mph tail wind.

finally got some pics, I was gonna take it to the lake today but the sun hasn't come out yet

I was gonna re gel the bottom... but what would it hurt if I just left it..
I'm not gonna keep it in the water

looks good....

Would it be a big deal to swap out those funky black square bezels for some rond red ones?

Seems like that would be a simple way to clean up the dash.

C'mon... LOL You're helping to support this place! :D



I know some peeps that would do the job.. Sanding those down and regelling should be pretty cheap. 600 - 800 I would guess?

well who ?

How this boat got blisters [ osmosis] ,sitting in water a lot ? Sanding it down to the fiberglass and regel may not cure the problem if water got deeper into the fiberglass that's not waterproof . I'd leave it , remove the square bezels ,throw some nice powdercoated ones on and use it as is for a while . I mean a few weeks :D
I better look at my buddy's 34' he just bought . Hope that boat spent its life on the trailer .
