She's 19.6, with a OMC 190. Electric Shift, no trim. Everything is stock, save a few things like the radio, CB, etc. Hours are probably somewhere in the 400 range, it's been in the family since '82 and has seen light use. No hour meter so I guess I can't really say for sure. Sure is clean though. These pics were taken before we washed and waxed her. :)

The dirt stains on the floor came out with dish soap and and a scrub brush!

There is a set on Flickr with larger and more pics, if anyone is interested.

Absolutely gorgeous boat. You have the exact trim tabs that I tried on my Gulfstream. They are horrible. I yanked them off and sat them on the shelf for 20 years. I just sold them a year ago on ebay and bought a set of Smart Tabs. What an incredible difference.

With 5 people in the boat and one tuber on the line, I can stay on plane at 2k rpm and have excellent slow run speed control. They also eliminated the high speed porpoising that I would get with a full boat on calm water.

They also almost eliminated the no wake speed bow steer wandering.

Real nice boat, I hope I can clean mine up 1/2 that good. So that`s what the rear seat look like mine are missing.
