Should I buy???

[BlowHo]

Going to look at a 1994 Reinell 239RXL(?) tomorrow. Has a 460 Cobra engine, dual batts, cockpit & full cover, cuddy cabin.

#1 I can't find a 239 RXL on NADA, what gives?
#2 Anything specific I should look at, i.e. common trouble spots on these boats?
#3 Will be used as a family fun boat, fish/ski, will this package do the trick?
#4 Any other comments on this boat, motor, etc. would be gretly appreciated.
#5 Any chance the fuel economy is gonna be really really good?


Thanks in advance.

Bill

fuel economy ..........d
not a chance 460,s are very thirsty
i would suggest a survey or check closely the transom and floor for soft spots
good luck

Thanks Chris, I feel OK doing the survey and mechanical. I was wondering about specific stuff on Reinell's since I have never owned one.
