I understand the whole for/must sell. The reason the deal has to be right is how hard it is to sell older offshores. Most buyers finance them and banks/insurance companies just don't put any value in them....Hence the market for them is so small. I offered 112k 3 years ago for this boat and was turned down...it's still for sale.

You offered Robert 112k for his boat ? Are you serious ?Wow you have big balls(not offending you what so ever) That boat is worth A LOTTTT more sorry that's my 002....Anyways he doesn't even want to sell it. It comes down to HOW BAD DO YOU WANT IT but than again all the twin step fans won't even pay 100k....

It has new paint and grafics. Everything else needs to be cleaned, reapholstered, freshend up, etc. The dash was cracked. The hull had a sand paper like finish. I was told it was old school way to reducing drag and gaining speed. (not sure I believe it) I think most of what it needs is cosmetic.

I believe he was talking about the boat that this thread is about. If he would have offered Robert that kind of money, we all would have heard about it. I hope everything is great in your world.

My point of adding the offer I made when it was for sale 3 years ago and is still for sale today is the ask price has shrunk to 89k......maybe you should jump on it!

I'm glad I he didn't take my offer....saved me 23k.

This boat was for sale in 2004 for about $ 79k. I looked at it but it needed a lot of work. Engines were just goiung togehter (572 I think) and it was original. It had original upholstry, and rigging. The trailer was junk hence the new trailer. I don't think much has been done but I could be wrong. Boat needs a rerig to be topnotch IMHO. I talked to Magnum Mark- Indio here- and he explained these boats need lots of love and care so I passed at the time. 41 is bigger than I wanted anyway.
