Hydra sports.....

I think this is where I’m gonna land. It’s already been pulled and winterized. I’m gonna see if he has video of it running. He’s down to $4K. I think based on the fact that I can’t run it, I’m gonna try to get him down to $3,500.
What say you guys?

I had a chance to get one of those cheap a couple years ago(project boat). i had way too much going on and passed one it. Looks like a good hull

I had 21 center console version of that hull, before i got my V. The best riding and driest CC i have ever been in. Rides great in our short windriven gulf chop. Only drawback, very tippy when at rest

Hope it works out for U

It that boat really 24'? It really doesn't look any longer than a V-20.

Looks like a nice ride. My buddy had an old robalo with the identical hull. Rode like a dream. Going on Saturday. Will most likely pull the trigger.
Only issue I can see, the trailer is torsion bar suspension. He says the torsion bar is shot and the trailer is riding on the axles. It’s a good 60 mile trip. It’s gonna be long and slow.

Well, if it does need axles, good news is they are easy to change,
bad news is they are about $500 bucks apiece.

Hard to believe they are worn out.

Yea, I see torsion worn out all the time(buddy runs a trailer shop), not a hard job, measure for the replacements at least three times before ordering. You need to double check that price, galvanized just went thru the roof. Lets Go Brandon:booty:

No, doesn’t look like a big job, but I know it’s pretty pricey. How bad would it be dragging it home 60 plus miles?

bring some wooded blocks and ratchet straps to block up the spindles if need be
