Cockpit interior is original to 1988. It’s in presentable shape but will need a refresh eventually.
Cabin interior is nice/comfortable. Includes the original cocktail table and liquor decanters.
Boat cruises in the 50s and runs into the 70s in good weather and conditions. Loves rough water. Sounds awesome and turns heads wherever it goes.

The boat is not perfect but shows really well for being 37 years old. Lots of money and time invested. Price drop to 33k.
