Title: bahners
Post by: 08chevyguy on March 14, 2016, 05:13:12 PM

Hey all, just had a random question if anybody wants to chime in. I was just wondering what yalls opinions are about bahners and if they are good hulls? Reason being is that I'm leaving st.louis Wednesday after work and driving to cali to pick up my new boat. It is a 1978 with a 545 cubic inch bbf making an estimated 650 horse. I'm soo pumped. And then me and my buddy are stopping at havasu for the day on saturday. Havasu has been on our bucket list and I'm so excited to be able to check that off my bucket list and make one of my dreams come true. So let me know what yall think about them. Thanks, nick

Kick ass! I want to see this beast.  I love my 18 foot bubble deck bahner.  Good, solid hulls.

Mines also a 78, I'm in the process of setting the pump back and freaking up my motor before I build a bigger one.

lol yeah fordlover. my last chevy gas truck I got 483,000 miles out of her so I had to get another one with the same motor. that truck was way too good to me not to get another one. and as far as boat power, I didn't care if it was ford or chevy powered. but wanted one or the other.
