that's life man. fair and justice.

All boats are expensive, but .. Can't begin to imagine how much the upkeep costs on that per year... Beautiful boat.

[@TonyMontana-hb6uj]

No they are not. I'm 15 and I just bought a 2017 Bella 485R with 60hp Mercury and it only cost 12 500€

@@TonyMontana-hb6uj some are cheaper than others. I just know my dad had a couple ski boats with inboard engines he ran on a lake up in new york and every winter they had to be winterized and stored which involved expensive fees, and every season bringing them out of storage there was something mechanical that went wrong on them without fail. The money spent on just those boats every year far exceeded what a car would cost. Depends probably where you live and what kind of boat. Small outboard craft cost far less and can be stored easily. A boat like this though, I'm sure would cost A LOT of money to maintain. Those marine engines will require a lot of maintenance especially in a salt water environment. Diesel mechanics and they'd probably come on site for repairs. I don't claim to be an expert but I'm betting it would be a pretty penny.

@@tlv156 Yes boating is expensive when you have Magnum 60. Maintaining just those engines costs around 70 000$ a year.

[@miketee2444]

Since Magnum is a custom builder you'd think they'd put the helm on the proper side. That would be hard to get used to.

Very Nice boat

[@sideskraft]

With a boat this size and with an aggressive wave-cutting bottom design, the owner doesn't have to wait for calm waters -- this thing will cut through 6 footers with ease!

[@unggrabb]

More fuel tax. More tax on these silly boats

[@homerjsimpson2118]

52 knot with that power. thats slow.

[@MarkSchwaemmle]

That would be true except this boat weighs over 60,000 pounds. Steamroller.
