Gets my vote when she's done!!! Orange 76' Vixen- my first fast boat, what a blast to drive!! :D You gotta' love Vixens!... (the boats too... ) :D

[wing nut]

ronnie good point.. the boat wont go to fast with no mid and a stock powerhead right? LOL

jason huber: my boat used to be a orange vixen.. till ronnie got a hold of it and made it new again :) also when did you sell yours? what power did you have on it..? i bought mine from a guy up in PA. (slight chance its the same boat.. but "hey, ya never know" lol

I sold it way back 88' Was built orange w/a white bench & side steer. The thing was absolutely pristine! My buddy wanted a little ski-boat, walked into the New Brighton plant one weekend in 76', told Howard what he wanted, & had it in a couple weeks! Really felt like it hauled-ass (touching 60 :rolleyes: ) with a 75 stinger on it and a ****ty prop. I lost track of it in the early 90's & now its' gone forever-I guess. Got into all kinds of trouble with it - man what a great little boat!! I know you'll love yours too! ;)

this is a long shot (really long) but you dont have the hull id # anywhere do ya?

this iis my first boat and turned into a yr long resto with my dad and many other people giving me hints, tips , and lots of help along the way. i don tthink ill even be able to sell this boat.. and i cant wait to see how it goes with 100+hp hanging on the back :) haha

Try these! #'s that I saved and had a couple of my Law Enforcement buddies trying to track it down a few yrs ago... HSP 981, HOA 775 , OT 14 773948. I think the last one was the motor # (?) :D

[wing nut]

the last one was porbably the motor #...

the #'s off my transom are HSP349HAM76H

if you go by the decoder on hydrostream.org it says my boat is actually a 75.. but since it was made after the "rollover" date for hydrostream.. it was stamped as a 76. if you want ill post a pic of my boat how i got it.
