Some of you may be familiar with this boat. I bought her on Ebay and shipped her to the Bahamas. I also bought the trailer which is like new and does not get used as I have kept the boat in dry rack storage from day one.
I have sorted out the timing and added a nosecone and SS water pump (did not like the plastic one) also had the stereo sorted with new amp.
I have only put about 10 hrs on her as my wife bursts into tears at anything past 3000 RPM !
She is very fast and sounds like a funnycar. Perfect condition, basically a new boat $22,000 will ship to Fla. easy to see and test in Nassau.
See attached.

What is hp and top speed?

The engine was built with super charging in mind so it is relatively low compression, allowing any fuel. I would say 525 to 550 hp, she certainly has no problem spinning a 26 mirage prop.
Have not put the GPS on yet but have passed boats exceeding 70 mph on theirs.

Not sure the exact length, but Hornet III's are listed as 21'.

No reflection on you and your, but I remember that boat and a bunch of disgruntled bidders on it too!

I remember he had posted some of his own soon after he bought the boat. I remember commenting at what beautiful water it was.
