I've always wanted a boat and am now doing some research to find what's right for me. The neighbor has an abandoned boat, it says 'hydroflight' on side, has a Mercury I/O, a sticker with 95 on it. it looks to be in good shape, haven't seen him move it in 2 1/2 years but the hull is clean, interior is in good shape in spite of being out in the Colorado weather for quite awhile. Doesn't seem to have been used much, set up for water skiing. I'm not interested in water skiing, just fishing and cruising. It's a deep-V with an open hull. I want to get a good look at it and make an offer and don't know where to start. I think it's a nasty divorce situation and figure I can negotiate a good deal now. Any suggestions?
