Anyone know of a 23-27 foot open bow for sale? Must be a big block. So far have been primarily looking at baja islanders but will consider others.

I have a 2000 252 Islander located in Biloxi, MS.

7.4 MPI 0 hours, brand new mercruiser short block from Merc, new fuel rails, injectors etc etc etc, everything behind the rear bench seat has just been gone through, new transom assy (transom is solid) asking 23k obo with trailer. Outdrive serviced, new prop carrier and bearings installed, comes with 2 props. All work was professionally done and have all receipts. Interior is solid with a custom stereo system. a great boat got divorced and upgraded to a 29 O/L

Got divorced and upgraded? You get alimony or something?

I wish I got alimony haha. She wanted an open bow boat, so thats what we had, and when she went so did all of her expensive habits. haha

Looking for a performance open bow 23-27 foot with a big block. I've been looking at Baja Islanders, but am open to others. You guys know of anyone looking to sell one?

I had a 252 with a 454 Mag, and it was fine, I am sure a 454 MPI would be fine as well, just a little less top end. I dont think it would be underpowered ot say.


But anything can use more power! haha

Look at my post above. Runs about 55 MPH with the MPI

Do you have picture you can send of the boat? I am looking for 252 Islander and am located in St. Louis area. Is your boat a freshwater or saltwater boat? How many hours on the boat itself?

Thanks,
Scott

Its a saltwater boat around 500 hours on the boat its self. But everything mechanical has been gone through or replaced. Here are a couple of pics. My buddy is about to get it out of storage and ill have him snap a whole bunch. I am in the Navy and just finished moving so trying to sell boat has been on the back burner.
