Twin engines, Bravo 1's, rigging, paint, bow rails, etc. and if you look at the boat you will not have to ask....BIG difference btween single and twin. I guess if you want a single then you don't care to pay more for two engines, drives and added security when you go out in the ocean....I won't go on...this is a true offshore boat....can't say that about a single engine boat.

the 99 single has no paint & has been Procharged....that depreciates the value a bit; not to mention it has been listed on here by 2 or 3 different owners??
New Moon is stock and probably cost 15k-20k more when new; just a thought...I've got over 80k in, the Stainless Marine exhaust was 5k+, and all the other goodies.....

But maybe I just want to keep her anyway!

Spilman out.....SML here we come!

Rich we are @ Bernards...end of the penninsula I guess.

i am sure you would love to keep her, she is a beautiful boat. guess i just didn't figure an extra 10 for the second screw. like i said, everything i do is inland lake, so i really don't need the security of a twin engine boat. in my case, it just adds maintenance cost. don't get me wrong, i would love to throw you an offer, it's just not exactly what i am looking for.

on a side note, i think you should do a little more shopping before you buy your next exhaust. if you paid 80k for that stainless, they reallly saw you coming ;)

So why has that white one been through so many owners? I actually like an all white boat, especially in the Texas sun. But I wouldn't feel very comfortable buying a previously procharged boat.

The boat is over 80k the exhaust 5k+ is what he said.

squick,
If you are only running on inland lakes a single bb is probably the way to go...$$, weight, maintenance,....it's just a different set up all together. Good luck, see ya on the water!

squick,

I saw one of your other posts. Just wanted to let you know we can put AC in a 28AT. There are AC & DC options; and many of us run the Honda EU2000i 'suitcase' sized generators (inverters) to power our AC, coffee makers, etc. etc. Give me a shout and lets spec something with a 'winter build' pricing schedule. You will get a LIFETIME hull warranty with a new Active Thunder, and I'll set it up so the 5 year extended powertrain warranty is in the purchase of the boat. We have 3 in house financing options as well.

Also, I know to some, the V-berth of the 28AT seems narrow. Its all in perception. I am going to get some width measurements. It IS possible to sleep two normal sized adults comfortably. One additional note. Most of the 28ATs are built with a drop in cabin liner which forms the entire interior of the boat. This can cost a little bit of cabin width. However, you can chose to have the cabin built with a liner, or opt for no liner and a custom interior. The advantage to such, would be that you could have the U-shaped couch turn into an even bigger bed.
