Complete Refit in 2002! You are looking at a 1980 Coyote 38 Offshore Race Boat. This boat was built and designed by JC Simon (Jean Claude Simon). There is a brief explanation below about JC Simon and who we was in the offshore race industry. My understanding is that JC Simon designed this mold and used it for his company, Coyote Racing, and then sold the mold to Sonic Performance Boats. I understand that this mold became the Sonic 42 with the addition of the swim platform by Sonic. The original Coyote 38 did not have a swim platform on it. The swim platform you see on this boat was added to her in 2002 when the refit was completed. So now, this boat is actually 42 feet long. During that refit, new motors were installed. 2001 Mercruiser 8.1L HO 425hp each EFI's. These motor are in excellent condition. They start extremely easily every time and do not hesitate at all. During the 2002 refit, everything was replace in this boat including gauges, controls, upholstery, interior, paint, drives, props, and of course, new motors. I have had this boat out off the Miami coast in 4 to 5 foot seas doing about 50MPH. That was certainly not top speed, there was plenty of throttle left. But 50MPH was plenty fast for me in those seas. This is a true race boat. The hull is made of Kevlar. Very light weight and very strong. Built for speed and agility. The drives are Mercury #3SSM drives. I honestly don't know what that even means, but I was told they are expensive drives. Also, there is 2 sets of props. One was just refinished and trued as you can see in the pics below. The other spare set is mounted in the cabin on the boat. Also, I have a survey on this vessel dated June 1st, 2013. That survey shows the current value of this vessel to be $63,500. It was completed by Performance Marine Surveyors, Inc. in Boca Raton, FL. Videos of the boat: If you want to see videos of the boat type in "38 coyote offshore" in the Youtube searchbar. This boat is one of a kind so every video that populates is this exact actual boat....
