Ahh.......you guys are crazy. That boat is well taken care of. Notice they covered the exhaust openings with tape for storage purposes. That shows real care

Guys,

This boat is a great deal. It is a bank repo, and has sat in storage for 2 years. The bank had us perform a full 100-hour service on all motors and drives. Mechanically, everything works, including the generator.

Taking into account the boat having sat in storage, and considering the age, this boat does show some wear. The cockpit interior needs a good detail and some touch-ups.

We believe Shogren sold this boat once "back-in-the-day", but I'll ignore his other comments as they appear to be unfounded. We checked through this boat and don't find evidence of what he is claiming.

Also, considering that ABOS wholesale is 80k+ and the bank is asking $59,900 or a reasonable offer, I would venture to say this would be a good deal for somebody.

Any questions, e-mail us at "[email protected]" or call us at 847-458-6488.


Cheers,
Team Grand Sport Center

Still has potential at the right buy.

maybe I am missing something, but I dont think it looks all that bad? I bet some new carpet, a good scrubbing and detail would go a long way, as well as some fresh paint on the drives. A dash makeover sure wouldnt hurt either. I would think for the right price, someone could have a nice big go fast/cruiser.

Although I would think by the time you freshen up the power, put a trailer under it, and some other cosmetic stuff, it wouldnt be hard to have 100k or more into it.

It does not look as bad as I would have thought by some of these posts. A good detail and you would have a huge boat hat looks good 50 yds away for under 75k. If you want a perfect boat this is not it. It would be cheaper to buy a new, nicer boat. But if you like having a huge boat at the dock and can't afford a new one it might be it. Of course if cash is a problem triples is not the answer
