Anyone else see the large Everglades boat docked at Shell Pt.? 4 large outboards, custom rig for sure.

No, but I sure would like 290 Pilothouse!

Everglades 435CC, Quad Yamaha 350s? Gorgeous boat, 44' of pure adrenaline.

Also a cool appx $750k. I'll take a van down by the river under the bridge and this thing all day.... and still not be able to afford the fuel bill!

I wonder if its a new (used) purchase or vacation over 4th holiday.

A buddy of mine texted me a picture of it a few months ago. Someone local owns it and yes, there are quad 350's on it. 1400 HP.

Sounds efficient.

A run from St. Mark's to C-Tower and back would burn a whopping 57 gallons or $150. Of course, if you buy this boat, what is a fuel bill anyway?

The best mpg came at 4,000 rpm and 37.3 mph, with a burn rate of 54.4 gph for 0.68 mpg

I’ve haven’t seen it in a couple weeks. But it was a fine specimen. I couldn’t afford the gas in such a vessel. But happy for those who can.

That's awesome, I doubt fuel crosses the owners mind. There's been a big express scalloping on the east flats near St Mark's as well, got to have deep pockets too. Then again 43ft with a cabin and you never need to go home, they can't repossess what they can't find :-D

Right on. Hope you have been filling the coolers! Kids have been asking about Quadzilla they haven’t seen it lately.

I am not sure but it may belong to the guy from Ga. that bought my house and three others within six month's at Shell Point. Money does not seem to be a problem. If Harmsway chimes in he will know, he is the un-offical mayor down there. :( :(

either he got it rewrapped/painted, or someone else couldn't stand it, because a really nice everglades with quads just passed me in the shell point canal, and it had a totally different color scheme.
Maybe they are giving them away somewhere. Anyone know where such a giveaway might be?

After quite an extensive investigation that would have left Sherlock Holmes envious, I located the vessel tied to a dock adjacent to where I took the above picture. Logic says he had the boat redone from stem to stern, and my hopes of a giveaway have been dashed.

Ha ha. Amazing how many of us frequent the area, yet never see one another. Unless y’all ain’t saying hello..
