Re: Boat prospect

It's a good looking boat. I'm not sure how the boat prices are in your area, but that seems a little high priced. Have you checked the values against NADA or BoatTrader?

Just for comparison, here are a few links of similiar boats around here:

I know that none are exact, but it was just the concept, y' know?

Re: Boat prospect

agreed, a good looking boat.
agreed, seems a shade high on price.specially in these times.
looks to me like a go fast boat. capt. call indicates that to me that is it's purpose. that said. i'd be disappointed in the 5.0L. if i'm not mistaken. there'll be nothing you can do to make that engine anything other than what it is. a 5.7 ya can do things to to make them more than they are out of the box. that said. i have a 250cid chevy engine. i can do nothing to make it more than it is too. however, i don't have a go fast boat that ya could possibly want to make it faster.. i have to be happy with what it's got. you will too i think....

Re: Boat prospect

Well those comparisons are apples to oranges, I mean 3 bayliners and a tahoe.
These are entry level boats compared to a higher level boat. I do agree that the price seems high for an almost 8 year old boat. But ultimately it comes down to condition and maintenance of the unit. If you are really stoked about it go for it. But I would do some looking around for price comparisons, even call some boat dealers.

Re: Boat prospect

Looks like a really fun rig to me. That 5.0 would get her moving at apretty good clip I'm sure, and not too bad on gas.

The guages, trailer, seats and interior look very nice, just make sure the maint has been done perfectly for that kind of cash.
