I picked up this boat last Friday, it's a 2005 Tahoe Q4. It is in excellent condition and the original owner says it's only got about 40-50 hours on it. Since there is not an hour meter, I can not be 100% sure, but from the looks of it, I'd say that's about right. When I bought it Friday, there were about 30+ MPH winds and I did not want to put it on the water before taking possession, so I just had him run it on ear muffs for a bit. I was able to take it out Saturday for a little bit and it did great. It handled the choppy water better than I thought it would and topped out at 53 MPH with the factory prop. It also just barely fits in my garage, I have only a couple of inches to spare.

Bring your GPS and check top speed. Also, don't tow it far without a nice travel cover. That wide blue gelcoat stripe will be pitted with tiny sand and rock marks. Don't use the factory snap on canvas to tow with. It is tempting, I did it on a long trip once and wished somone mentioned this to me. What size and pitch prop is on there? I am always curious since I have the same engine.
