I just picked this one up the other day. Here are a couple pics. Needs the cabin finished and I'll be putting my power in it. Not much of a project like I'm used to but it will keep me busy this winter.

Thanks. This boat ran 108 with 800hp. When I test drove it it had 500hp and ran over 80. I'll be putting 600hp or so in it. 90 would be nice...we'll see.

Not sure if Chris had it before but Holden Kramer was the last owner out of Mamaroneck NY.

Thanks guys....this was Holdens boat. You might be thinking of the white 27 Activator with a blown small block that Carbone has/had.

Good luck with it, they are awesome boats! I had a 29' and loved it! I used to run with the big dogs (Top Guns, 42 Fountains, Etc.) in most water conditions. I had about 600hp and the boat ran mid/high 80's. I had it propped for all around performance and it accelerated like a demon.

Nice pick-up jdub. I ran next to this boat on the Hudson fun run. He ran away from my AT easily. It looks like a very fun boat.

You are probaby talking about the blue/white 29 with the 500 HP. Another great boat and the price is right on that one. I've met the owner Lloyd a few times...nice guy

I can't find a pic of the cabin. It was just simple cushions and "monkey fur" headliner.

That's one of the great things about this boat it can pull race/pleasure duty. I'd love to run some local class 5 races.......we'll see

Here are some shots from the 2003 A/C Poker Run. These were shot by the late Tom Newby of Powerboat Magazine.

This was an outboard 27' that ran 100. I don't know what happened to it, haven't seen it around.

Nice pics Tom. I talked to the guy with the other twin outboard with the wild paint not to long ago. Seems like a good setup. He said he was running north of 100 also.

That would be the one. I was looking it over when I was out at the Glen Cove run this past summer.
