Hi, I am considering purchasing the above model boat (going out for a test at the weekend), it has the mercruiser 4.3 mpi engine and a high five stainless prop. I am looking for a good quality runabout rather than a massively produced basic boat (having recently sold my Bayliner 212). I am planning to go down slightly in size to make launching and recovery easier..

I was just interested to hear any views on good and bad points, things to look out for on this model etc, I would also welcome any images - boats/brochure details etc...

I will be using the boat in a combination of sea and lakes for wakeboarding and general use,

many thanks in advance for any responses

Welcome to iboats.
Good move on getting out of a Bayliner.
You can not really go wrong with a Doral product in my opinion. Solid, reliable and for the most part well built. Do the usual checks for rotten floor etc and if all is well you should have a good buy.
Hope this helps.

Ken.
