Hi to all you sibber's, thinking about joining you all by purchasing a second hand Zodiac futura super fastroller with a Suzuki DT15S 2 stroke engine all quoted as being year 2000. Are their any known issues, good or bad, surrounding either the sib or the engine and what would you say was a fair price (Uk)

What about US $ 2/2.5 grand as seen on pic, boat/engine/dolly wheels.
Being a newbie all I can offer is the fruits of my research & second hand opinions.
After several weeks scouring all the ad's for sibs I just gave £1500 for my Cadet fastroller & Mariner 15 (2003 engine, 2004 Zodiac) inc wheels & bow bag etc.
So given that the Futura is the next model up but a little older, £1200 seems right.
I only got the Cadet as it's lighter & easier to drag around than the Futura.
I'd want the 25 HP motor though (if it's the 3.7 metre).
All the reviews I read & dealers I spoke with really rated the Futura.
You must look out for any cracking or crazing Like crodile skin ,as will will be a sign of perishing ,especially are the cones at back of the transome .I recently bought a 1999 very cheap needed several repairs in the end wasnt worth it and used the console for another boat it was a 4.2 futura zodiac

That seems like a good deal. Interested in the lighter and easier to handle comment the one for sale is the 3.5 m version, would this fit in the hatchback of a VW golf? It appears from what I have read I may need an estate car.

very interesting, I have owned a 4.2 zodiac pro which did have a sort of minor cracking in parts of the material, although it caused no problems perhaps it was in the early stages.
