There was one, maybe two, key words neglected REPO's, that sold around this price. The one that had sixes needed ALOT of work done to it and the other ended up being completely redone. For a complete running nice 37 Outerlimits your going to be hard pressed to find one for 75k. Wild Child was a great deal at 85K and was an ex race boat which usually brings less money than a stock pleasure boat.

Why does everyone always assume that the guy wants to spend $75k for a prestine boat???? Maybe he wants one to go through and be able to put his own touch on.....

XR's on my 37 and its been doing over 100 since 2004. Rebuilt one drive twice and the other drive once. Everybody on these forums say you cant have XR's on bigger boats with power. I am proof that if there set up "right" and you know when to get out of the throttle then there just fine. My boats not an anchor queen either. I run my boat everytime its out.

Wild Child was a steal. You aren't going to find anything else decent for even close to $75k. Boats in this price range are cheap for a reason. Besides, as far as I can tell most of the steals are gone. The economy has been sh*tty for so long, anyone who is gonna lose their boat to the bank has already lost it, and anyone who was gonna blow their boat out at a liquidation price to keep themselves afloat has already done so. Most of the folks I know who boat a repo boat at steal wish they hadn't done so, because what they really ended up with was a moneypit.
Do yourself a favor, spend more $$$ and buy yourself a nice boat. In the end you'll come out ahead.

I disagree, guys who can drop 200-600k for a boat can afford to put gas in it, regardless of the cost per gallon, besides, a great many people with "money" end up writing off the gas as a "company" expense. Thats not gonna change. It will however affect the "smaller" guys, which kinda sucks.
