I've already bought my Contender anyway.

I was shocked at the price. $240k boat show special. Sea Vee makes a 31'
with a forward cuddy and a single diesel for around $140k. And a Whaler has
very little if anything in build quality over a Sea Vee.

The latest boating magazine has a Grady White 36' on its cover. Triple
outboards. Just under $390k. Eeeeek! If you don't mind me asking, what'd
that Contender cost, and with what power?

225 E-TECS (for two) at $31K, boat, T-top, enclosure, electronics -
$162K total. I kept the trailer from the old boat.

That's not bad. I hear the new 290 Edgewater Pilot console is selling for
that.

What is the oil burn rate on those E-tecs? Is it 50:1 or 100:1? The oil is
pretty expensive, isn't it?

I honestly don't know about the oiling rate. I believe it's metered as
you run - what the average is I don't know.

About $40 per gallon but I understand that a gallon of the stuff lasts
at about two/thee times the normal rate - maybe more than that. I
don't have all the specs yet - hell, the engines haven't been
delivered yet. The boat should arrive in a couple of weeks.

I'm looking forward to it.
