Originally sold as 'Stealth' boats, you'll find many more for sale under that name.

I looked at these a few years ago (they do look like great fun), but eventually went for a pair of 1400cc jet boats instead.

You should be able to pick one up with no engine for around £1000 - £1500, or pay about £3-£4k all inclusive with engine/trailer.

They often pop up on ebay and boatsandoutboards.com (horrible website, but lots of users).

And right on cue, after a thirty second check, I've just proved myself nearly spot on. smile

If you're looking to buy, this one is about the best I've seen, and I was in the market for a good few months, nothing anywhere near as this good came up. If I was still looking, I'd be paying the asking price, it's a steal.

My local Hyundai Garage used to sell these, my dad nearly bought one a few times with no research or anything just because they looked like fun.

Are they any good then?
