hey jesse do a search at the top and put in vulture and you will see previous post and there was a post similar to yours in this past december lots info they are unique hard to find fast stable good in chop ski or tube off it good with passengers in back seat because short deck front seats forward big cockpit so it needs setback to air out the xt hull is excellent good luck wth your search

There was a beatiful one for sale in maine, i believe that's where it was, for several months a little while back.
That is an awesome boat. The xt bottom is phenomenal. Very comfortable, fun, the entire family will like the ride, and you get the look of the classic hydrostream. I thought about buying the one in maine that was in beautiful original cosmetic shape. It was like my viper, with the multi shades of brown graphics. I asked pipkorn about it and he said he thought less than 100, maybe just a few were made, but he couldn't remember. I bet you will safely see 85 mph without any issues. The 20 is a much bigger and heavier boat than the 18 viking. If i could find a basket case one, i would love to trade my basket case viking for it, since i have a viking already. John mazar had the standard 20 vulture and loved his, but due to the comfort, and rarity, the xt would be better in my view. The other thing is, if you are trying to be the fastest v hydrostream on the lake, you aren't buying a 20 foot anyway, you would buy the viking or vector, so get the comfy 20 foot xt, and have the look of the viking. You will love the ride and love to ski with it. My 2 cents.

I love all the room in my vulture. There is enough room to haul a small herd of people and still have plenty of leg room. Now to just fix this plywood core from the previous owner and I will be set.

I cant see it all that well but from what I can see, that is one sharp looking Vulture and the XT looks awsome! I would love to see more pics of it if anyone has any.

Does it have a bit of a tunnel going on there or what? I don't believe I have ever seen one either.
