    2 hours left on the auction and only up to $3k. Appears to be a no reserve auction.

    I am just not a fan of the deck on that. It just seems to tall on the 32'. The longer Cobra's look ok. I do love old race boats though, and I am looking for a new project. Hmmm.

    Offshore Racing wasn´t designed to be a spectator sport, it's for people or companies with's lots of money to push the envelope of endurance technology and hopefully put a trophy on a mantle. It's man vs the elements, not like boats with like engines running in circles.

    Nope the only thing that boat in my book had going for was the colours and some details, The Deck is not my taste it is actually ugly on all Cobras IMO.

    I like it flat and if it snaps my neck then at least I died doing something I loved.

    But its worth it .

    I talked to the guy that raced it last . he said some HP smallblocks and XR's and the thing will do 100 min. rock solid , nothing wrong with the hull at all.
    partley rigged and ready ( almost ) for power.
    Needs new steering , pumps ,wiring,drives and power.
    I would redo the seats and paint it .

    WOULD BE LIKE NEW , READY TO GO !!!!!!!

    I think boat sold? No matter what you think of deck, Remember,there's no more Old Racer's being built, If you can find one, Money's not the issue, It's knowing you brought the "PAST" back to "LIFE", I saved "INFERNO" from being crushed, And have way more than 30 or 40k in it!! It's history of Offshore racing your saving!! Whatprice can you put on that?

    -Just curious, the transom cut-out looks odd to me. Anyone know what drives were rigged on this boat?

    My Sutphen is a big piece of history & the boat is all original & clean,turn key.
    I'm the second owner & would like it to have a new home.
