Just looked like a nice clean boat and a pretty good deal. I have no idea what these went for new.

NADA has no values for them older than 2000. Were they made by someone else before that?

Randy, this boat was on EBAY very recently - for some reason I thought it was from OH? Maybe it did sell... who knows, still worth a closer look, looks clean in the pics

Mine's a '95 - very solid boat, most likely a bit heavy compared to the newer ones, but she rides like a caddy

How do they do in the rough? Are they a true cat, or do they have a pod?

Thanks for the info. Don't know if I'm in the market or not, but I saw it and thought I'd ask about it. Seems like a lot of boat for the money, and it looks to be in good shape. The white/red one looks neater and has more power. $20K asking more too!

If you guys have any more pics, please post away. I haven't looked at these much, but they are the best looking of the boats that share the hull. Definitely nicer looking than the AO boats. The interior layout really looks like an Ocean Express. Similar/same hull as well?

That's just plain odd. I guess the guy in Jersey bought it to flip it? Was the oso ad a scam?
