I just checked the 91 brochure and no 235. Closes is a 225.

Maybe it was a left over 90 that was re-titled and sold as a 91. The hull id is 91 and the decals are 235 DVX. Wonder why it wasn't in the brochure.

Looked at the 260 ES yesterday, it looked like new, wife fell in love with the extra room, not a scratch on it anywhere so gave him $5K to hold and paying the rest when we pick it up Saturday. Taking my buddy's 1 ton Diesel instead of the Nissan as pulling thru the Mountains would strain the Nissan.

Most likely the reason. All it took was a die grinder and push a new HIN number into wet gelcoat. Best way to tell is to locate the hidden HIN number and see if it looks like there were ever two numbers glassed one over the other.

Many Dealers would not take a leftover boat unless the model year was updated.

Congrats!!! What are the details of it? You'll definitely enjoy the boat and have just enough time to get it cleaned up for spring!

Was it the 95 in Jersey with the 454?

Anyway congrats. You will like the 260 lots of room. It's a great tubbing boat as well. Mine really liked a stilletto prop from overtons.

It's the 91 from NY, garage kept, incredible condition, every service record, already thinking about some changes though, like ripping out the refrig under the back seat, don't see myself using it, changing the seats in the future to drop out bolsters. Can't wait to get it in the water, he said the top end will show 58 on the speedo and GPS will say 55 at 4,800 rpm, has a 21 mirage. Cabin looks like it was never used. He was very anal about the boat.
