Yea I've seen them. Nice boat. I live on a lake and that would be nice. But $100,000 I think I'll stick with my 17 foot Bayliner

I agree, if I was to spend the money it would be for the actual car, not a themed boat...

There was a C4 version on Craigslist/Boise
last fall. I think they wanted $30k.
It had a "factory" 383 LT1.

That is not much boat for the money. They way the used boat market is it would be hard to resale for $ and the size of the boat. I would buy a new the zr1 for that kind of money.

From car to boat, regarding fuel economy, you go from miles per gallon to gallons per mile.

That is why I sold mine. 80 gallons at todays prices. 100 gallons a weekend make a nice car payment.
