Re: Turnkey Boat vs. Project Boat
 

you boys please let me know when any boat is a true TURNKEY :evilb: :evilb:

Re: Turnkey Boat vs. Project Boat
 

HaHa Right on Tom,
I bought a turn key boat allright,, Turned the key and Blam its a project boat. :evilb: Get newest, best condition and biggest you can afford, look through all records and buy the seller a few tanks of fuel and run that boat a few times before you buy. You can always count on rebuilding at least one engine pretty soon after you buy, so factor that in.

Engine should be back on the dyno the end of this week.

I went to the Austin Boat Show yesterday looking at boats and shopping for "wet slips" and "dry stack". I found some 28-foot "wet slips" for $1830/year! :eek:

I think I need to first grab a slip, second get a truck, and third get a boat! :evilb:

Re: Turnkey Boat vs. Project Boat
 

The "project" was sold and delivered this morning to the first guy that came to look. Paid in full. Now I am in the merket again.......... :D
