Personally not a big fan of the TRS, 600 is alright but little high if maintained and not abused - just realized this in the Fountain forum, a Fountian guy will chime in surely that had one, give it a day or 2.
I'd throw a low ball offer, boats don't seem to moving lately, may need to sell it.
a pic will help these guys help determine the value. Good luck

I've had TRS drives before, and really liked them. That would not deter me from buying.

I think great boat but how much are you going to have to put into it??
i would be carfull +
i bought what i thought was alot of money at the time 73 k for a 92 35 with 500's and it ended up costing me addit 25 to 30 k before it saw water
some folks were around back then when i bought 5+ yrs ago.
was supposed to be turn key blah blah blah,,,
i dont understand how someone can do that??
really sucked at the time.. flew to harrison township paid and got to put motors drives and more into it later..
boy did i learn a valuble lesson///
check it out carefully.//
with 600 hrs i would run... bad fuel tank what about the other one??
etc etc
my o2
