^^^Makes sense. I couldn't believe you were going to install more/new hardware in that thing. I keep telling myself Arnesons, however, I would probably use that money towards something else before doing that.

Good luck, leaning towards any particular brands? We do not have many cats up here, so I can't really help. 46ft Skater????

The power went into a 47 Outerlimits that the owner bought and flipped. Not sure what happened to the other tranny. I'd say the price is pretty reasonable considering the Konrads probably have less than 30 hours on them...

I've known the boat since Kool-Aid Brian bought it 10 or so years ago, and have spent a bit of time in that bilge, lol.

leaning towards a newer 368 or 388 Skater with modern efi engines in it. But I can't say we would pass up an Outerlimits SV43 if one came along!!

its a good buy until you see all the cracking in the side… thats not lack of flex agent in clear? (what ever that is) its the boat flexing… usually stringer broke where its cracking and Top guns crack there when stringers crack or are soft… but cool boat the drives are nice!!!
