Default 42 Fountain Water Damage

Any one know anything about a 1997 42 Fountain Lighting in Riverside Rohde Island that has water damage? Was it sunk of is it water damage from just sitting with the plug in it? Looking for any info anyone might have on it. Looking at possibly purchasing it.

Thanks
Eric

I wouldn't pay 2800.00 for that heap. I love my 47, but nice early boats can be had for way under 100k.

If you are looking for a 42, a quick Web search found this boat. Non step, but I love the big cockpit of a side by side 42.
