The deck has a Nordic boat vibe, but no steps/vents in the hull?/

yea it does seem kinda old school i could add vents with just doing inserts in the mold so i could lay it up with and or with out vents/steps
i dont have a sales team or anything to promote it i wonder if its worth messing with or not

Maybe nordic flow, but it doesn't have the built in platform or windshield like the nordic.

That mold is a flat transom. Personally, I like it. If you can get it cheap and have the room to store it, why not.

what do you guys think this hull would be worth with mercs new 8.2 ho motors and drives

1st pic looks like a completed hull, any HIN#? Is the blue pic a plug?

 

[wstultz]

First pic looks like the old Aronow 34. I believe it then became a Magic.

im not sure about that other one being the plug or the other completed boat i got the pictures from the guy selling the mold

but looking at a complete boat there with graphics had to be at least 275,000
and a build cost of close to 75 % seems like a lot of investment for a small return if you can even sell it

If you had a better shot of the front that would help, Like T2X it does look like a older Velocity. But it also could be a West Coast plug. The front of an east coats boat comes to a point and a west coast boat are flat or rounded.

the owner of this mold said it was designed by a guy from the west coast and apparently they build a boat without his knowledge so he repossessed the molds and now is selling them

A Velocity would have a larger pad. On his big boat it was nearly 18" wide.

They looked completely different to me. These aren't the greatest but they are enough to show they are not the same.

It doesnt look anything like a Velocity.

 

[McCaffertee]

Not a Velocity....just another "popped" boat, most likely from a west coast manufacturer. It's not all that easy to build and manufacture a boat. If you don't have the cash to do it properly (design and build your own plug) then stay away from the biz...

i agree why go to all the trouble then you dont know what boat it is or how good it will are wont run thats a big investment for a shot in the dark

but it could be improved apon and made to run just like any boat you got to feed it what it wants to make it dance
but as it is old school and all we know it should be good in the rough water

 

[MOBILEMERCMAN]

all we know it should be good in the rough water

Should be is assuming... I assume something different.. It is sitting idle for a reason..

correct its an assumption on the whole thing without having data from the first boat out
