Is this the one you’re talking about?
No...that was one of if not the last boat that Carson rigged...that beat is over the top and Clint sold it to a guy in Canada I believe. The one I am talking about is base dark blue with gold anodizing #231 called eye of the tiger.
That's my dad's old boat. When he bought it it had a small race aero engine. My dad put a Gentry engine in it. It was 3 shades of blue #231. I think every v drive Carson built had hydraulic steering.
Boat looks great Racey, enjoy it.Got too busy doing work for everyone else, as they say the plumber's faucet always drips... The dark blue Brummett is a badass boatGFaulk here on the boards had it for a while.
Is it the white one? How much are they asking?
No...the dark blue one. Asking $45k
This boat I believe is an '84 and waas only used to pull ski races back in the mid to late 80s. It only pulled his son and daughter. I started ski racing in '92 and the Pappas' (original owner) were already out of racing. The boat my dad had was their practice boat and got the majority of use.
I see. That’s bitchen. I’d really like to drive one, see how they handle.
Buy it back for what you sold it to him for and get to work...lol
If mym memory is right it has an all aluminum Donovan 512" CID
I have driven at least 6 of them. They have a much shallower entry angle than a Schiada or Vector so they ride a bit rougher. They have a 14 degree dead rise over a Schiada's 16 degree. That said, they are literally the most solid boat you will ever ride in. I don't think you can hurt them. Where the deck is bonded together makes them a tank, that and Carson likes things bullet proof so they are not laid up light.
Damn I wish I had the money. I would love to ride in one!! Lynch, you gonna make it to the rally this year May 18th?
