I was told the Seebold weighs 475. I need to weigh it to be sure. If 475 is correct, the boat, motor fuel and rigging should be in the 1200 lb range. I am beginning to think that the Hpdi will be too heavy..

I do not know all of its history but I found a old thread on S&F from 2005. The Seebold was for sale in Ohio with a blown up 2.4. I was told it sat at Top Gun for a few years under shrink wrap then sold twice before I picked it up.

Yes...but even better..it even has a smarter hpdi system with an o2 sensor...but it still has a limiter you can't avoid.

James, you are correct. I am thinking about the purchasing the HPDI. The old carb'ed 2.6L is working great, I just do not know how the boat will run with the added weight. As far as the rev limiter goes, I could run into the same issues that you were with your HPDI.

I should just smarten up and stop looking at boats and motors.


well if it were me there is no way i would pay 8k for a 2004 HPDI... however i would sell it for that.. lol. beat this guy up see if you can get it close to 6500 then in that case you can sell your 2.6 for 3000 and upgrade cheaply.. the sea bold should be fine with the hpdi.. doesn't Mark have a V8 on his?

my v8 weighs less than a v6 omc 410 lbs +or- a couple lbs. it is not a stock v8. I could put my v8 on that warrior no problem. also my seebold is almost 2' longer and heavier . that's why it is taking me so long to put this package together the parts are rare and hard to find. $$$. but we will get there. hoping for summer of 2014 ;)

Thanks for the advise guys. I have decided just to keep the old carbureted 2.6 for the Seebold. I do not want the added weight on the transom.

I am looking for a 225 Promax drop on for a spare for the Skater if anyone happens to come across one over the winter.
Thanks
