Here's my 96 Nitro 896. Been a pretty fair old boat. It's been towed all over Mexico and seen more than it's fair share of abuse and neglect. I reckon I'll run it as long as it stays together. When you consider the price of new ones that won't do anything the old one won't there's no real incentive to drop 40k+.

Here is my 99' sitting in NC in 2005 when I drove out and bought her off ebay.
She has a newer less powerful pusher but its the same boat.
She used to run 94 but now is stuck in the 70's..

+1 & I love the pics of Guerrero too! Those would make a nice desktop wallpaper! Everytime you sit down to your computer you would feel like your right back out fishing!!!

Its a Mariner 150 2.0 that has been Hot Rodded! It sounds freakin AWESOME with that can removed!!!

Here is what he did :

1...........Cut the chest some but not so much to loose the bottom end.

2...........Stuffed the chest mostly where the oil shaft goes

3...........Opened up the ports on the pistons to a D shape and balanced them

4...........heads milled to 33cc

5........... pulled the can

Thanks. Must be approaching 65. Noticed you got a new motor. How did it work out compared to a rebuild of your old motor?

Just purchased the boat yesterday and snapped the picture while towing boat home.
2 hour drive & rain/mist came down steadily the whole time. Poor picture but will upgrade later with better quality pic.
