Hey everyone, im new here. I have boated before, but am new to boat buying. I had some questions about a particular boat.
I am looking at buying a 2001 Bayliner Capri 235 that is for sale in Indiana. I have spoken with the dealer, and he tells me that it is 23' long, has no hour meter on it (is that unusual?) has good compression (i asked for him to get the numbers for me to verify), has the Alpha I drive, and is a 2 Barrel. 5.0L V-8 with 220HP.
My family is looking for something that has a cabin, can hold 6+ people on the deck. And can pull a skier every now and then.
Would this be the boat for us?
What other questions should i ask the dealer before i make the 4 hour drive to look at this boat?
Any comments on ths model or things i should be aware of?
The dealer is asking a little under 15,500. Is that a fair price in your opinion?
Thank you,
-Brendan
