OK guys on to the next topic. Following the title chain, sorry but, it isn't going to happen. The owner before me got the boat from someone who owed him money at his marina in Jupiter. He then took the boat from Florida to North Carolina, where you do not need to title a boat to register it. I actually brought it home from Hatteras NC one summer after fishing up there and he just wrote me a notarized letter so I could get a title back in Florida.

As far as hanging a pair off 250s off the back, good luck!! I think you would end up drowning the motors!

As far as Lou Rambo's 27' boats go, I have always thought they looked somewhat similar to mine but, they are a little wider, have more of a rake to the bow, and the bottom is not the same. Not mention I was fishing out of Palm Beach when he started building them for goggle eye fishing, definitely not the same era.

Lastly, A JUPITER? OH!!!! YOUR KILLING ME!!!!!!!!! I WOULD LOVE TO SEE ANY OF THE JUPITER BOATS RUN WITH MINE!!!

Later,
Richard

I was told mine had twin OMC 235's at one time. Fuel tank was moved fwd to compensate for the added weight. Owner said one of the engines never ran right so he didn't know how fast it really could go but was well over 70mph as it was. He re-powered with a single 200 planning to go with twins but didn't have the coin after he purchased that 1st engine. It was still fast... Carl told me with those triple Mercury's it ran about 67mph depending on load. My big debate is single or twins. Carl suggested twins...
Blizzard1, good luck with the sale. Hopefully someone here will fix her up right.
