Not sure why you need a viper when you’ve had one for at least 10 years plus

Hey guys -

Does anybody know if you can look up members by their real name? There some guys who posted photos on Hydrostream.org I'd like to contact. I only have real names and location.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks

I am not on face book, but I did find this boat on Craig's list. Initially l wasn't crazy about the color or lack of interior. Maybe I need to look again.

Buying that $6k hull, your going to be upwards, if not over $10k after you replace everything and get it all re-rigged and back on the water. Ron also pretty much got that viper for free and he went ALL OUT on that thing. At the end of the day, its your money and things are only worth what someone is willing to pay. Guess it depends how bad you want it. Personally, knowing there is a really good chance that boat is rotten, I would give over $3-4k for it. And $4k is being generous. Take the motor off and $1500. Thats all its worth being rotten and most guys would prob agree.

Are you on Facebook at all? There is a sweet 1979 Viper that is on there for $4500. Has 2.5 200 Mariner, manual jack plate, hot foot, seastar hydraulic steering. Thing looks pretty sweet. Here is some videos he posted of it. Not totally sure if the core or transom have been replaced but looks like something has been done by the looks of the splashwell area with the added knees. I asked him if they have been replaced or not but have not heard back yet.

Wow, very interesting. There are others who have said just the opposite. I have seen a few hulls that have gone for less than $1k, but once you go through a total resto, adding an interior and motor, you end up with a $10k boat pretty quick. Most cheap hulls I've seen need extensive work. I don't want a Ron Pratt level project.

Maybe there is such a thing as a nice Viper with original gel and interior that has been cored for $6k, but I sure haven't found it.
