Zodiac Futura wanted

Hi guys, I’m looking for a Zodiac Futura.
I would prefer a Ali deck model with seats and console but may be interested in a air floor.
Nothing too old or repaired.
Regards Paul.

Welcome to the forum.

New style Futura with oversized tubes and more importantly a 25hp 2-stroke outboard. Perfect power to weight ratio. Haven't experienced air floor myself, but sourcing HD model (aluminium floor) will be difficult, however they do come up from time to time. Looks mint.

I have a 2015 Futura mk 2 with alu floor, seats and remote steering. Every time I build it I think about the air floor models ease of build. The Futura's floor build really sucks compared to other hard floor sib's I have had. But I will hassle it for the larger motor you can mate to it. I have a 60hp etc, Goes like Stink! Very stable even when go out solo. Zero to WOT (37mph) in 5-7 sec.
That said the boat above does look like new and very easy to build compared to my setup. I've seen seats put in air floor boats. Seats are Great to have. Sitting strait forward when bouncing in rough water is much better for the back than tube or floor sitting.
