OK Guys... This one is going to kill me a bit to part with... a TON of work went into this to make it "right"... but it is, and it looks and races GREAT... Time to let someone else get in on the fun, as I'm not racing this hull any longer...

Let me know if you have any questions... Reserve is set very reasonable for what this is...

Super Salami, lol!

Great looking boat. I bet that paint scheme took a while to do.

With all the stuff you're parting with you could probably take a nice vacation

Believe me... there is a LOT that I'm NOT parting with... Just thinning things down to those items I really use and LOVE...

I have a total of 4 (FOUR!!) N2-Sport hydros... Can't race them all, and I'm partial to more modern hulls, so the round-bow got the nod to go... I'd love to be able to keep all of them and just have them for display, but I need to cycle the $$$ back my way so I can afford to do other projects...

...Like take the wife to Colorado... :rolleyes: :cool:

If all goes as planned... ALL of my boats may be coming to Colorado in the near future... My wife and I are working on moving to the Denver area within the next 18-months or so... I may have an opportunity to transfer there so I can continue working for my company as well... which would be a lot nicer than trying to change locations and companies at the same time...

That would be great!
What hull material is a dark horse made of? How much does it weigh as shown?

It's made of fiberglass woven cloth, layed up very light... I'll have to weigh it when I get home... not sure, but it's really light... I'll weigh it tonight and find out...
