This boat showed up for sale at a marina where my friend keeps his boat. For the Bman that has (almost) everything, but not a B20. (I have no financial interest here, just thought you guys would appreciate seeing this.)

Saw the boat a the Boat show several years ago and I think it appeared at one of the Atlantic city Rendezvous. Out of curiosity, do you know what they are asking?

My friend said it was $40K.

Actually, when you add up the cost of the engine, the Bravo 3 outdrive, the install, the fiberglass and windshield work, the prep and paint job, I'd guess it would be about that.

I took a ride on that boat with Doug C, John D, and Harv at AC a couple of years ago. It had plenty of power, but was way to fast at idle and seemed like a bit of a handful aroung the dock--in an out of gear like a big diesel sportfish. I like the way my B20 with a 200 Yamaha feels and goes alot better. Nice boat though.

John - What does your B20 do with the 200 Yammie?

I saw a bunch of outboard (3) in the Abacos last week.
