Well if you have been on this site for awhile then you know I'm the guy that's been looking for one of these boats for years and years. Picked mine up today. Here is the first pic in the driveway 5 minutes after getting home.

Let me know what you all think. More pictures to come.

Thanks everyone, I will have more pictures up today. NoWake, I believe it is a Beast lowe half with the Cuddy cap. Big Block 454. 1984 is the year.

Not sure exactly how many were made but I think the number was single digits on these boats, like 5 or 7 total were made? At least that is what I recall hearing once.

Definitely unique... enjoy!

At 19' is there much room in there? Would love to see a pic inside the cuddy.

Wow, that is only 19'?

That giant air horn on the side made me think of Caddyshack haha.

I'm hoping so badly that you put a tower on this thing. You'd get the strangest looks from everyone at the lake, as if you wouldn't already haha. I could just see you rafting up with all the new 100k dollar boats and they look at you like you're crazy. Then you show them your inboard motor and they all suddenly flock to take a look. THIS MUST HAPPEN!!

Refresh my memory, did you used to have one of these? And that's why you've been looking high and low?

I love the color scheme - same as my boat, that is. Can't wait to see more pics!

Speaking of rare cuddy inboards, a close friend might pick up a MasterCraft 240SC for use on Lake Michigan, only 11k in pretty nice shape! Definitely a niche market boat.

So, is the seat next to the helm sitting right on top of the engine then? I saw a picture of yours that makes it look like it is.

SUPRA_ALLEGRO_LANE
07-23-2014, 11:14 AM
Yes both driver and passenger helm seats are on top of the engine.

Wow it looks like it's in amazing condition. What is the floor like in the stern? Is the fuel tank back there? How is the access to the engine? Was this sitting in storage somewhere like, since 1986? Sorry for the barrage of questions...

The gas tank is under the rear bench. I'll post pics of it. This is actually the boat I grew up on. The owner bought a new boat and sold the Supra to me. I'm the 2nd owner. The boat has never left Northen California. He took great care of it, as I will now.

I think you should take it to the lake and surf behind it. Everyone would prolly think you were surfing behind an I/O lol

You mean the exact boat or same model? Were only single digits of these boats actually made? Look forward to more pics and info! Do you know why they made only a few and I wonder for who?

Where the hiccups, to many people coming over to you and asking about the boat. A cruiser inboard supra. Awesome!!

Yea, its the exact boat. I agree, I have only found 4 of them. Not sure why only so few made.

Incredible! Would love one of those for overnighting at the lake! Does not look like there is much room in the cockpit, but the high driving position and the cabin make up for it! Does the motor box tilt up-remove for access?

SUPRA_ALLEGRO_LANE

Yea you can remove it completely from the boat or just tilt it back. I'm gonna do some rewiring this winter to make it easier to remove and create some extra storage room from the back of the boat.
