• V6 Power: High performance for a jet drive.
• Jet Drive: Ideal for shallow water.
• Low Hours: A highly valuable asset, but buyer is responsible for verifying engine health.

Project Opportunity

This is a great opportunity for a skilled welder or a buyer with the resources to fund a major repair. You get a relatively new, high-performance jet engine mounted on a top-tier aluminum hull (once repaired) for a fraction of the cost of new.
