As far as the price goes, 1 you like the boat alot, the boat is in excellent condition. You could probably find one for less money and then spend $$$ on recon or repairs and still not have that sweet like new boat. As we used to say in the used car business "you can't make a silk purse out of a sows ear". You are probably buying it for 1/4 the price of a new boat.

$7000 is a deal on that boat with that number of hours assuming everything is in good condition. Did you end up purchasing the boat?

I purchased one last spring. I got ripped off and paid 8990 for a 97 U-19. I dialed it in the way I like it and now I am obsessed with it. I love the boat. It handles like a PWC and feels like a roller coaster ride. $7000 would have been a great deal. I hope you purchased it.
