Default Look at a 29 fever

I'm looking at this 98' 29 fever at pier 57. I was wondering if anyone had any information on it. Thanks in advance to all you fountain guru's!

I looked at this boat about a month ago. Pier 57 is at my home lake. I also briefly met the person that traded it in on a 35. It was a little older than what I was looking for and it had twins. But, I stop by and look at their boats all the time.

Pier 57 is a first class dealer. Sorry don't know anything about your find.

I looked at a lot of boats over the last year and this one is pretty clean to by standards. I don't recall any major problems with the hull and interior. I remember telling my wife this was a nice boat for its age. I will say I was told that by many people... And when I made the trip to look I would be disappointed. Pier 57 is a good dealer! All their boats seem to be fairly represented. We looked at a 32 also. The sales rep gave us an honest assesment of it and the 29's condition. I think he rated the 29 a 7-8 out of 10. And, the 32 a 4-5 our of then. The 32 was a saltwater boat I think. The original owner of the 29 traded it on on the 35 with American flag graphics on their website. I am going up this weekend if you need me to look or do a phone walk around for you.

Have you talked to anyone yet? If not ask for JJ.

I have a 98 but the step in the hull looks funny like one on 27 footer. My step ia alot deeper. What speed are they telling you out of the boat?

Honestly I haven't even asked about speed out of it. I am more concerned with the condition than with top speed at this point.
