I own a 1986 Ski Eliminator and from what I gather... it's a pretty rare boat. I can't find much info on the web regarding them.

Anyways... I keep an eye out on eBay and thought this was kinda interesting.

I watched http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=004&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&viewitem=&item=140125627497&rd=1 - this one , sell for $4200 a month or so ago. Blown 454 motor.

Then I ran across http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1987-Ski-Eliminater-454-Indmar-L-K_W0QQitemZ230156405226QQihZ013QQcategoryZ63686QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem - the same boat , he's asking $8200. New motor.

Doesn't look like much profit to flip a boat like that. I imagine it would be at least a few grand to repower.

I watched that first auction like a hawk hoping to score it for a coupla grand. Oh well... I like my colors better, even tho it's only got a 351 in her.

And anyways, I plan on my next boat being a CC so I can truly become part of the group. ;o)

Cheers.

Joe

Plus he had to get it from Illinois to Texas.That would be like dragging a Barracuda SS from NC to say La or IL.(inside joke)
