Joe, I have some information on Cee Bee......The blue Hydro with the flames is a Cee Bee  (they purchased the molds from Powercat).....................When I get home I will take a look at what I have.....are you just looking for specs? I suspect I will have some performance tests as well.

mostly out of curiosity, a mutual friend told me about this blue one in the pix, thought i could basically pick it up.
after talking to the owner it has significant sentimental value, he feels its worth $1500.
its 455 powered, and even if the motor and jet is good i think it would be quite a stretch.
so don't look too hard.

Looks like a splash of a early Sidewinder. Which was splashed off a Glastron btw.

Boy I dunno Joe. IF the hull is sound & the motor/pump will run. $1500 ain't all that far out. Least round here?

I will tell you those things are difficult to get in & out of. Not "utilitarian" by any means. But what the heck, you got another boat for that ...

Cee Bee was founded by Bob Brown (one of the writers for Powerboat Magazine).......I am sure I have issues with Performance reports and such.......has that one been sitting outside like that very long?

He did not say how long it's been out side, just that he parked it in "the shed" 10 yrs ago, cuz the steering and control cables were hosed up. and at some point the shed fell on it and broke the windshield.
Looks like the alum rub rail is tore up.

It's in worthington MN

I think it took a hard hit in the bow by the way it looks. and what is up with the added bracket by the steering on the jet?
