even tho it has a bad drive, rather buy this one for a few extra grand and fix it (and not saying i would pay 12K, it would be alot less)

Not real far from me. Might be worth a look - just need a new tow vehicle to haul that pig! The first thing I would do with that boat (aside from the drive) is dump the pedestal seats for a set of bolsters. I would even take the non-drop down sit-down bolster seats in my Force over those things.

So the better looking (in my opinion) boat at asking price of 10,000 is a huge pile of chit

but the not as good looking style with a bad drive and pedestal seats for 12,000 is a WAY better deal?? thats odd...

I gauranteee BOTH need hull work so thats out the window...

I dunno I still think the flat deck 320 is WAY better looking style and cheaper is a good deal, I know 7-8 cash takes that... 100.00 bills talk real fast..

I have to say the Formula 311 over in the Swap Shop is the deal that would be the most tempting to me, if the stars would align and he was closer. It's all a crap shoot, unfortunately. I could travel 5 hours to look at a hull, only to find that it has bad stringers or transom. Wish I had the time to chase these deals down, but I don't.

That 311 is a deal I think.....

As far as rot.....I would go into ANY 80's. Boat assuming rot.....if it don't then its a bonus! 95% of em are rotted

I agree, this boat looks 10 years newer as far as style, has bravo drives.
And if you are going to drive a tank, might as well be able to stand up in cabin.

Seats do suck, but look at the deck room
