Title: Opinion on a 82 Cougar tunnel??
Post by: jordan_searls on September 08, 2013, 02:45:02 PM

I have been talking to this guy about his cougar tunnel hull for sale. Its about 18-19 foot. Went and looked at it and stringers and hull are in great shape. Has a casale drive on it and has steering. Has been sitting in the sun so is a little faded but other then that the hull is pretty sound. What can you guys tell me about these hulls and set up and what about would it be worth??? Thanks.

I knew a guy with one in the 80`s. it was a 20 foot OB version, with a 225 it went almost 90. I saw one radared at 103 with a 350hp race outboard.

They were made in Britsh Columbia until they were bought up in the early 2000 or so. They were very well built and rigged boats in their time. They made OB and v-drive versions I have seen, and supposedly IB/OB version too.

My buddy had one with a 300 outboard on it. Ran well over a buck!
