the 05 28 is a nice boat no doubt and is on a MYCO...bottom line is its worth what someones looking to pay for it. GOOD LUCK WITH BOTH THE BUY AND THE SELL !!

I should have had you negotiate the deal, I wish a 28 with a 525efi and a triple alum myco was 95k. This is not a sea ray and not a fountain, of course a fountain can be negotiated there are 1000 for sale. As far as sea ray goes there must be 50000 for sale. Not to disagree but right now there is 1 used 28 for sale and even with some negotiating I don't think your pricing is on...vic

very nice boat. why was it repowered, didnt it originally come out with 525? is this boat the newer style hull. thanks, Himes

My last boat was a 05 Executioner with 496s. List on it was $204,900 and i bought it for $145,000 with a triple axle load-rite. Kept it 2 years and sold it for $125,000. You got to remember that Fountain is only 2'10" longer than a 28 AT :hitfan:

I am still amazed that someone would come into the AT section & compare a fountain; just shows a lack of knowledge & info. Maybe the PRA review will help...Where's my copy???e

This boat was originally rigged with a 496HO/XZ. This is a "newer style" hull.

wasnt degrading the AT by any means and if it came off that way i apologize. i've personally bought and sold 5 boats in 4 years. its all about brand recognition. not saying the a fountain is better or worse then an AT...but i will bet you any amount of money that a fountain is easier to sell then an AT...been there dont that. reguardless of how many there are for sale. if a 28 AT is what rings your bell then by all means WRITE THE CHECK...theres an azzz for every seat, its just a matter of finding it

Berns, I guess it just frustrates me that so few people know the quality, size difference, & rough water capabilities of Active Thunder boats. It is true; a 28AT is less than 3 ft. shorter than the 35 fountain.
As far as ease of sale; I've never sold a fountain so I really don't know, but there are hundreds of Fountains for sale & only a handful of AT's. My 28 AT was for sale & I had solid offers in 30-45 days. Fortunately, I kept it!
Oh well, it is what it is.

boat was repowered because...
 

The 496ho was too slow for me, and I was able to get a 525 and put one in so I did it. Pick up and speed are better with a 525. If I was thinking I would have put the 575 in my boat. After all this work the boat was not big enough for my family of 5 plus a friend for each kid the boat can't handle 10 people and everyone have room . So I want to go bigger. Thanks Vic (The 496 had no issues and I sold it in 2 weeks, the boat was not beat and I blew the motor, as usual these are money pits and I am just doing my part to waste money)
