My brother is thinking of selling his 22. Not TT but new blown motor with about 8 hrs on it.

Not looking for a deal, just don’t want to wait two years to build a new one.

Have you called Lee at Schiada? He often knows of boats for sale before they are for sale.

You’ll be waiting longer than 2 years for a new one guaranteed…. LOL

Two years is what Lee said, but you never know for sure. Hopefully I can find a dime piece that someone will part with.

OD1 has a 24 with a Brummett motor.. it’s a no bullshit deal. Pricey but it’s nice.

I wonder how the carb motors run compared to the efi? Absolutely stunning boat, seen many a pic of it. Is is still for sale?

carbed engines are still running strong. I'm guessing the boat out front is injected, the other two not so much. Give Paul gooding a call. 602-679-1850

The big advantage of EFI would be things like cold start, and ability to tune mid range better. Also some set up dual tune ups so you can flip a switch and run more power with better fuel vs 91 octane.

Carb turbo deals still run great, need to understand how to cold start (usually means a pump or two of fuel, but also don't want to flood it). I ran one for years.

Have you taken a look at the Rex Marine Schiada? I'm heading to it's location in a few I can take any pix that you would like to see. Call Tony. 928-486-0684 He can give you info. or tell me what other pix that you might like. I'll be there in about an hour or so. I'll try to find pix of the over head trailer mounted fuel tank. It's not on the trailer today however I do have pix. Barry also has photos of the boat.

@obnoxious001 will be able to add info. as to how the boat handles at speed. It's a proven race boat.

I saw it listed, just didn't get me excited. Maybe the trailer or carb motor is what turned me off?

@pkbullet one hell of a transition. going from asking about a dw to now a schiada?? haha
I've been bouncing the idea of a twin outboard cat or a Schiada for a toy. The Schiada I can put in my wakeboard boat slip when we don't have company. I think that we would use it a lot more, plus it's what I grew up around.

Is this listed anywhere, or just his boat?

You have to call him. He hasn’t really promoted it because it’s a small pool Of buyers that are gonna want something like that.

It is a first class deal though..

No comparison in the seat of your pants. On equal hp the EFI feels like it has probably 200 more hp because the throttle response is so much better. This is mainly due to the fact that the turbos don't have to move fuel and air, only air, on the EFI setup. Spraying fuel into a fan slows it down quite a bit.

Also the EFI has computer controlled waste gates so you have much better control of how the boost comes on across a broad range of conditions.

If you are going to spend north of 100K ....I would not settle for anything less than made in the 2000's and EFI...there are a lot of old nice ones...but I would want to find one of those newer ones that had not raced or beaten and then restored... Gonna be around 150K to 200K...but that is the price of entry... There are some newer ones just have to find the person to part with it... I had a 2002 with 1000hp pfaff blower motors... They are fun boats... Not the fastest but its more then the speed with them...raw unbridled HP with the v-drive...

I agree with your line of thinking, now I just need to find the right one. I have a line on two so far, see how they work out.

I can really see where the black trailer with them chrome doohicky things at the back could be a turn off. Maybe a fourth axle is in order. 😁

Anyway. Here's a couple of pix of the trailer fuel tank and if I happen to hear of any other Schiada's for sale that might meet your criteria, I'll post 'em up in this thread. 👍

The pics I saw were with the tank, I guess I stopped looking after that. I still think I can find the right EFI boat.

I'll keep my eyes open and ask a few friends that are always searching for a boat to flip or own. You never know what might pop up.

I wish you luck in the search! 👍👍

I actually liked the tank up top.. I would convert that into some Kinda shade deal for shows.

That said the boat was priced extremely high for years for what it was.. I think he went through it recently though and the price has lowered.

Thanks for the lead on the 24, it is a very nice boat.

I’m still hoping my requested catalog shows up. It’s been 15 years since I requested it so maybe any day now?
I brought a box of 'em back from Mikes when I was last there helping him. I was supposed to hand them out at the 336 Parker Enduro but I forgot to bring 'em to the race. 🤷‍♂️

Yeah I have lots of history, I owned it from a couple years after it was built until Tony got it a few years ago. From 95 to then it sat unused. It's a low hour boat and has a fresh Kincaid engine rebuild with around 15-20 hours on it right now. We ski raced it and practiced with it through the 80s to early 90s. Not a lot of hours compared to most lake used boats. EFI is certainly nice however these carbs work great. A new EFI engine as this one is equipped would cost as much as he's asking for this entire rig.

Guess I need to proof read before hitting submit..............Anyway you are correct Mike about boat having timeless colors etc. Going to put some nice billet swim steps on it and stainless rub rail. Getting too old to be using plate to get in and out.
