Looking for a 28 Skater

NOMOGOFAST · 07-15-2009, 11:50 AM

Hey guys,

Looking for a smoking deal on a used 28 skater. Anyone know of one that's "not" listed for sale online. I have browsed at all of them on various sites that are for sale. I have a budget and most of them are just outta reach. Any help would be appreciated. Would consider most anything as long as the fual tank issue has been repaired.

What are you looking to spend? There is a nice 1997 with new motors just listed.

Depends on the boat, power, condition, etc. Lots for sale for big money. Guess thats why they have been for sale a while. I have a budget but it really depends on the boats condition and et-up. What do you have in mind?

Thanks for the offer, but I am gonna buy a 28. I used to live at lake anna. We used to do the james river run every year in my eliminator. Alot of my friends went this year and had a blast. Hopefully we will haul the new 28 up to it next year. Good luck with the sale of your boat.

There are a few good deals on 28 Skaters the 1997 with New motors looks the best. If you are looking to Steal a Cat for dirt cheap try a Motion or Spectre.
It is definatly a buyers market for Anything. I guess if you find someone that really needs the $ you might get lucky.Good luck in your search.
You will love the 28! I will keep mine till I buy a 32B or 36

Looked at a couple spectre's and motions. They are not out of the question yet. I have cash in hand. I talked to a few of the people online selling there 28's but they aren't budging too much on their price. I am not in a big hurry, but I would like to buy a boat soon. The economy sucks and I can't justify paying top dollar for anything these days. Like you said "maybe I'll get lucky"......will see. Keep your eyes out for me. I would love to be in the "skater" club. If you get a chance give me a call. I would like to know what to look for in a 28.
Thanks Again

Carl myers 28 skater, " how sweet it is" looks like it just rolled out of the showroom. I don't have his # handy, but google sweetners plus and ask for him and i'm sure they'll point you in the right direction

Not looking to steal one, but not looking to pay retail in this economy. Just want a good, fair deal for both parties. I don't need financing and want to pay cash.
