He did not sign a contract with the broker as he didn't care for the terms. Broker listed it anyway but not much info on listing. I can put you in touch with the seller direct.
Thanks for the info on your friends boat, but I would like to have something newer with an updated look. I think that 42ft to 44ft will get us everything we need,

You will not be disappointed with this boat! We just got a 98 with 540s runs great all the amenities AC,gennie, hot water, real head/shower, micro wave etc.
Fuel consumption right around the 29-33 gph cruising at 40 mph, tops out at 50+. crushes big water. Every port we stop in people ask what kind of boat it is. Had a guy tool up on a dingy to ask about and compliment us on the boat after we blew by his 38 SeaRay like his engines fell out. Guess you can say I really love this boat best of both worlds I call it our gofast condo

Low maintenance is a must, so no 1200 hp monsters I have to rebuild every 150 hours. I have to say that I lean toward what she wants also, Sea Ray, Cobalt Express, ect.
Well, the "48" Fountain Express Cruiser sounds perfect.

No advice on boats, but ... anytime you hear the word "whatever" from your significant other, hide.

I still don`t get it, you`re going to be doing all the maintenance, storage, slip, fixing, paying, driving, etc on a boat you don`t want, to make your wife happy with some non towable gay ass slow cruiser?


MISERY!

Piss on that ****. I got rid of my 242ls formula cause she said it was to rough in the LOTO water, and got a 31' scarab. It handles the water way better and she hates it even more for this and that... bottom line: *****es will always have a problem with whatever you like. So do what you want so at least ONE of you is happy! A formula 400ss with twin 525sc may be a good comprimise tho?
