Throwback Thursday? Why not...

I don't know. Did sell it for more than I paid for it, Schiada magic I know. The guy who bought it from me lived in Eastern Arizona. Haven't seen the boat since then. I figured he might show up at some of the Schiada board meetings, but the membership data is top secret apparently.

Ya lol. Jus wondering Looks like a pretty boat and don't remember seeing it around

Thanks

I bought it from Lonnie Fluent and had it for a couple of years before moving up to the 30' Spectre. It was his wife's boat and she wasn't all that happy to see it go. It was in Hotboat Magazine a couple years before I bought it. I did some upgrades to things like the gauges, cleaned up some of the wiring, like the cav plate controls. Actually drilled the steering shaft with a hand drill in place with a very long drill bit. Had the v-drive box run through and replaced pretty much everything in there, but that was about it. Was a 120 mph runner (in Schiada mph).

before moving down to a big heavy 30' Spectre.

That's better.

That pic was taken at River Daves Mom and Dads house in the keys right?

The Spectre weighed nothing and would run triple digits all day long with the fishing boat engines clamped on the back.

Take all day to hit a hundred is what you meant to say. Lol

I bet that thing weighed as much as a suburban.

Was it a She-ada or a Shy-ada?

That's the one that dropped a lower unit into Havasu wasn't it?
Had to cover the kids' eyes when it went by it was so X-Rated...

That would be the one. Had to put a new set of tires on the trailer when I got to Havasu at the start of the weekend. Should have been my first indication to scratch it. All said and done that was about a $15,000 weekend in Havasu and there weren't any hookers or blow involved. Dropped the lower unit coming back from the Springs cruising along at 105 when the tach zinged. Was right about the dam and it was a long trip back to the Nautical on one engine.

There was nothing to it. No cabin. A big sub under the deck, but that was it. 5 seats, a couple of 2 stroke oil tanks, gas tanks, and under 1,000 lbs of engines hanging off the back. It was a race boat setup for the lake. Your Joseph Smith neighborhood cruiser weighs more than that boat did, including the trailer.

Shy-ada. Duh!
