Any info on this boat would be greatly appreciated , I bought one real cheap and I am a avid barefooter and wanted to know if it is worth my time to totally rebuild this boat. [email protected], thanks.

I have never seen one can you post some pics?

[haugy]

This has to have been the Star, Sport, or Rider. I've never even heard of one, less seen one.

Definitely need pictures.

Comp was introduced in 84. Perhaps it is a prototype :) That would be like finding a needle in a haystack or an Allegro. My vote it is a beast...

I dont have a pic of the back of the boat but it says barefoot edition. 13020

[Supracomp2450]

Thanks for the replies, guys, I will get more pics soon. This boat would be a total restore project for sure but I think it would be a sweet boat.

Well Ngavdba, which is it? A Supra Star or Supra Beast. The damn things look identical.

Depends on which day of the week they made them. Mon, Wed, Fri I believe it was the Star.
Tues, Thurs should have been the Beast.

One thing for sure is the "Barefoot Edition" is aftermarket, yet the 440 made for perfect barefooting.

Barefoot edition was only made on Saturday, hence the low number of them like the Allegro which was only made on the days that followed a full moon.

are you serious????

[Jetlink]

are you serious????

Me? Not at all. With the huge ability to customize ones boat to their liking in this day and age, it is getting more and more difficult to tell exactly what some boats are and what the lineage is.

well, the whole monday wensday friday

and then tuesday and thursday deal.....

They made different boats on different days?

I just want to know what it is I have here, I may be interested in selling it, cause i dont know if i want to take on such a project.

Don't let it go to the dump. That would be a shame. Take the time and fix her.

[Supracomp2450]

What kind of speed can you get out of a good running Beast with a 440 big block, I would like to see high 40's or low 50's

[Jetlink]

Mid 40's is probably more realistic.

[villain]

That depends on your hp and what prop. Put 500hp and a matching prop and you should see 50. There is a guy up here that has an old ski supreme with a 700hp big block that says he GPS 75mph. Haven't seen it run flat out I. Person yet so can't confirm.

[92SupraComp]

500hp to go 50mph? not right. like 320hp and 50 or more. go to ccfan, plenty of those guys have done up their motors in all sorts of ways, and they mess around with CNC props a lot.
